Hi Jim,
thx again.
I catched the panel problem, I just erased all panels and created a new one. Now it works...
just for your information
for scsi devices, you have different names for hd's and cdroms. hd's are called sda, sdb, sdc and so on
cdroms are called scd0, scd1, scd2...
your cdrom is called scd0 because it is the only scsi cdrom you have...
hope this helps to understand...

I'm glad that the deleting the existing panels, then adding the new panel worked for you. I usually create an additional menu panel for the top. (GNOME). I put all my favorite programs up on the top panel and use the bottom one for utility programs, the desktop switcher, clock and window list.
Thanks for the info on CDROMS, SCSI. It makes sense to me now. I don't understand why my CD reader was accessed and is now called /dev/scd1 though.
Here is my current /etc/fstab and links to the cdroms. It is the same as my last check. I haven't made any changes to it lately.

By the dates that the links were made, /dev/cdrom1 was manually made by me. The second link appeared when I killall'ed magicdev, then proceeded to burn a CDR on phoebe.
