Hi everyone. I recently upgraded from 10.1 to 10.2, and so far so good,
except I can't get rid of one hiccup:
I can't play CDs or DVDs in any app. While MDV is starting up one thing
that lists as FAILED is:
"Mounting local filesystem: mount: special device /dev/hdc does not exist"
It worked fine with 10.1. If I play a DVD using Totem for example, I get : "Failed to find mount point for device /dev/hdc in /etc/fstab"
This is the cat of my /etc/fstab:
# This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details
/dev/hdb7 / ext3 defaults 1 1
/dev/hdb1 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0
/dev/hdb6 /home ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom iso9660 defaults 0 0

On the line about /dev/hdc, what does that iso9660 mean? Does this have anything to do with the install disks that I copied to my hard drive, and still have there? I've hit a dead end in my personal Knowledge Base. Thanks for any help.

I am not sure why you are having the problem, but the iso9660 file system is the normal CD-ROM file system. If you want, you can try changing it to auto and see if that helps...
Mikkel
Try this
"/dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom auto umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0"
or this
"/dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom iso9660 user,iocharset=iso8859-1,noauto,ro,exec 0 0"
After much dinkin' around (my girlfriend can't understand how I can find that to be much fun), I found that my CD/DVD drive works fine with KsCD (auto-plays audio CDs),xine,Kaffeine. Totem still says it can't find the mount point for /dev/hdc. Mplayer doesn't seem to want to do much of anything. Didn't try xmms.
Actually I'm still curious as to the why of this, but now that I can use the drive, it can take a back seat.
Sorry that I didn't check the other apps first. Didn't do my homework!! (Can I be spanked now?)
Thanks again! Cameron
