I'll be happy to add the info you request to the bug report if it will help, but I don't think it will.
The gnome-volume-manager automounts media-volumes for users *without* having a mountpoint exist or having any mountpoint info, etc,. in /etc/fstab. The debian version uses hal, udev and pmount to do this. gnome-volume-manager has pmount with fixed options hardcoded into it: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ strings /usr/bin/gnome-volume-manager | grep pmount /usr/bin/pmount-hal %h [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ The problem is that dvdrw's get auto-pmounted by gnome-volume-manager in rw mode, which makes the volume unreadable, since blocks get changed when mount rw. unmounting the volume by hand in a terminal window reports a dirty dvd+rw. the same volume is readable if mounted by hand with the read-only flag. Either gnome-volume-manager needs to be able to pass a read-only mount flag to pmount when it automounts a dvdrw, or pmount/hal needs to detect an rw and automagically mount readonly. I didn't change anything in fstab and there is no entry for cdroms or similar in it (well, actually, I did change it...I removed all those entries that I had added years ago to user mount cdroms, since gnome-volume-manager mounts them for the user...), so this wouldn't tell you anything. -j Martin Pitt wrote: > Hi! > > Usually CD-ROMs are handled in /etc/fstab, so this might not even be a > pmount bug.
