I suppose I should know by know but ... Do I need an entry in /etc/fstab for an optical disk drive? If so what should it be? I viewed some lectures on line, bought the download actually but decided would eat up more of my bandwidth allotment for the month than I could afford and had them send me some DVD's instead. Then to my surprise my F-16/64 installations wont play them although they looked fine from the download site. When I put a "movie" dvd in the drive an icon pops up normally but ls /media appears to be empty: [bobg@box6 ~]$ ll /media total 0 Should I not see something like /media/cdrom ? The disk I am testing with has always worked on earlier Fedora's. Admittedly I rarely do anything with dvd's but when I have needed to I have been able to play and record, in most cases data. Now as far as VLC and Parole it is like there's no drive installed? I need help troubleshooting.
