Maybe because the user has no access to the device files. If you use ide-scsi emulation or scsi cdrom drives, add your user account to the cdrom group. If you use ide drives without ide-scsi emulation, /don't/ add your user to the disk group. Better switch to ide-scsi emulation, or maybe change ownership of the cdrom device files (/not/ the hard disks) to root.cdrom. best regards Andreas Janssen -- Andreas Janssen [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP-Key-ID: 0xDC801674 Registered Linux User #267976 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
