I installed an "optical drive" in this F-18/64 XFCE computer and it is
apparently recognized by several applications however I don't see an
icon come up on the desktop when I put a cdrom in the drive. The same
disk works as expected in a similar F-18 computer.
When I put the disk in the drive the light flickers for a while and
then stops, no icon appears, and it is reluctant to eject.
[bobg@box10 ~]$ ll /dev/sg1
crw-rw----+ 1 root cdrom 21, 1 Mar 16 2013 /dev/sg1
I don't know how to troubleshoot this so any help is appreciated.
Bob
Another indication, I get:
[root@box10 bobg]# mount -t iso9660 -o ro /dev/sg1 /mnt/cdrom
mount: /dev/sg1 is not a block device
I suppose the drive could be defective but I would like to know I'm
doing everything right before I pursue that path.
