Postscript: Sometimes I use a DVD burner from LACIE over IEEE1394 interface. The interface is used by a PCMCIA card. If I disconnect the card including burner /dev/cdrom is still there. When I connect the card /dev/cdrom will be deleted. When I insert a DVD in this device two Hardware Detection Windows are shown. After Open one mount shows /dev/sr0 on /media/DVDVolume type subfs (ro,nosuid,nodev,fs=cdfss,procuid,iocharset=utf8) After a second test the failure was not reproduceable but the dectection function need some minutes to find the DVD. That´s really confusable. Can someone give me an advice how we can go through to find the bug(s)? does your laptop have a dvd drive or a cd drive? because in the first case there should be a /dev/dvd created by yast during installation, and the bug is about kscd not choosing /dev/dvd when it is available. otherwise, I don't understand the bugreport. Ok, may be it was not clear. I have installed RC1 with one CD-ROM R/RW internal and one DVD/CD R/RW external over PCMCIA (Cardbus-Card) Firewire interface. Note: In Beta 4 there was also a problem, please have a look to BUG 115118 - IEEE 1394 Firewire Bus Hostcontroller over PCMCIA not installed I had not realised that the external DVD/CD burner was connected to /media/cdrom with a symbolic link /dev/cdrom to /dev/sr0 and the internal CD burner to /media/cdrecorder with a symbolic link to /dev/hdc. I guess that a normal installation with a internal CD R/RW drive has in /media cdrom and cdrecorder linked to /dev/hdc and if there is another one (in this case external) the installtion procedure installed cdrom2 and cdrecorder2 in /media with a link to /dev/sr0 by example. Something goes wrong with detecting hardware and the following installation. If you can give me an excact advice in which way I should test this Bug it would be fine. And I guess now it is´nt a KDE problem. I agree, this is something for yast people. they probably want hwinfo, lshal and y2logs.. reassigning Right, full logs are appreciated ;-) I need the files from /var/log/YaST2 Created attachment 49753 [details]

The data provided by hwinfo says that your internal IDE drive is able to write cdroms. Therefore it gets the link cdrecroder. The extermal drive has no write or dvd capabilities at all according to hwinfo data. Since it is named "_NEC DVD+-RW ND-6500A" hwinfo seems to be wrong here. hwinfo uses the kernel data which are unreliable in some cases. hal does a much better job, we'll use those data next release.

hwinfo
Ok, to complete the information about this problem here hwinfo. Next lshal and
mount with ls /dev and ls /media.
Anything else?

Thanks, it will do. hwinfo 12.13 should do |
