Description Krzysztof Magusiak 2008-12-30 16:28:23 UTC
Whether there is a mounted CD or not. I can browse it going to its mount point, but nautilus does not see it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert a CD
2. In the menu Places choose CD-RW

Actual Results:  
When I insert the cd, gnome-volume-manager mounts it automatically (and can open it for browsing too). I can browse the CD going to its mount point which is /mnt/cdrom.
But, when I click on the CD-ROM icon on the left pannel in nautilus nothing happend. Then, in computer:/// location it says "Unable to mount location" when I double click on the CD-ROM.

Expected Results:  
Browse the cd when I click on the left menu on the CD-RW label.

I can mount the CD as user.
I can still burn CDs using nautilus.

This bug does not appear when I run nautilus as root.

fstab entry:
/dev/cdrom              /mnt/cdrom      auto            auto,ro,users 0 0

mount command:
/dev/sr0 on /mnt/cdrom type iso9660 (ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev)

Try commenting out the /etc/fstab entry for your CD-ROM drive since gnome uses hal to handle the mounting.

Thank you. It worked.
Just a little tought: On my other computer, with Ubuntu, the fstab entry is not commented, so why does it work there?

Great, glad it worked!  Not sure, I've never tried Ubuntu.  Maybe they do something atypical?
