Description Vince Castellano 2005-03-04 10:14:00 UTC
On my newly installed system, I noticed some weird behavior with the cdrom drive. First, dmesg shows my cdrom as hdd, but it's showing up in my /dev/ tree as hds, which has no mention in dmesg. Then I noticed it's not making /dev/cdrom,/dev/dvd, or /dev/cdroms/cdrom0, even after editing /etc/udev/cdsymlinks.conf. I made these symlinks manually (which I don't like as I use a non-tarball pure udev) so I can test it. I was able to play a dvd fine through ogle, however, when trying to use cdparanoia, I get the following:
More information about /dev/cdrom:

        Testing /dev/cdrom for cooked ioctl() interface
                /dev/hds is not a cooked ioctl CDROM.
        Testing /dev/cdrom for SCSI interface
                /dev/cdrom is not a SCSI device

Should be fixed in the latest version of udev, if not, please run 'udevtest' for the cdrom device and 
reopen the bug with the information.
