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.
