Public bug reported: On my system I have, recognized by dmesg, the following:
hdc: LITEON DVD-ROM LTD-165H, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive hdd: PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-110, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive On cold reboot, with ls -l /dev/cd* /dev/dvd* I get lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2006-07-10 11:34 /dev/cdrom -> hdd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2006-07-10 11:34 /dev/cdrw -> hdd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2006-07-10 11:34 /dev/dvd -> hdd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2006-07-10 11:34 /dev/dvdrw -> hdd when I should be getting: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2006-07-10 16:10 /dev/cdrom -> hdc lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2006-07-10 11:34 /dev/cdrw -> hdd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2006-07-10 16:10 /dev/dvd -> hdc lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2006-07-10 11:34 /dev/dvdrw -> hdd This mis-assignment messes up programs like disc-cover etc. The problem is likely in either: /etc/udev/rules.d/20-names.rules or /etc/udev/rules.d/60-symlinks.rules The sooner fixed, the better.
