Hello all,

A week ago I sent an email asking for help regarding mounting problems on
KDE. Specifically, I have a CDRW/DVD-ROM drive and when I put a disk it
fails with the following error:

"Error while loading media:/hdd

An error occurred while loading media:/hdd:
The file or folder media:/hdd does not exist."


I tried several configurations in /etc/fstab, including the suggestions
James and Justin gave me. Since then I tried a lot of other possibilities
and googled around, but found no answer. The strange part is that my
CDRW/DVD-ROM drive can automount normal CD disks, but fails specifically
when I insert a DVD a disk (both burned DVDs and movies, etc).

I suspect that the problem might have something to do with the device
/dev/hdd but I couldn't find anything on google.


ps: my fstab is currently using the defaults which came with my Kubuntu
distro:
/dev/hdd        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
/dev/hdc        /media/cdrom1   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0

/dev/hdc is my DVD-RW drive, which works fine. /dev/hdd is my CDRW/DVD-ROM
drive which can only automount CD disks, but not DVD disks.


Can someone please give me a hint or any suggestion on this problem? It's
really annoying not being able to automount DVD disks! :-)


Thanks in advance an thanks for the support so far!


Bruno

I do belong to the 'cdrom' group. Permissions on /dev/hdc and /dev/hdd
are exactly the same, and I just tried to give a+rwx to both but the
