Hi all,

I'm facing for some time now problems with the permissions of my CDROM
drive. Everytime I start k3b I receive this message:

No optical drive found.
K3b did not find any optical device in your system.
Solution: Make sure HAL daemon is running, it is used by K3b for finding
devices.

I'm in the plugdev, cdrom, video, audio and disk groups, but I still get
this message. Mounting the drive using mount works. The only solution that
I've found for that is chmod 666 /dev/sr0, and that is not convenient, as I
have to do it everytime I reboot.

The permissions are

ls -lah /dev/sr0

brw------- 1 root root 11, 0 Jun 24 03:56 /dev/sr0
and

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Nov 24  2009 /media/cdrom -> cdrom0

My /etc/fstab says

/dev/sr0       /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0

So I really don't know exactly what's happening here. Brasero or VLC doesn't
work either. Should I file a bug report? If so, against what package? I'm
running Sid AMD64.

Thanks

Ivan
