When I do that, I get nothing. But, this is promising (BTW, my prev
ide-cd thingy was left over from another CentOS box. It's not effective
on this one.).
]# ls -l /dev|grep -i "dvd\|cd"

And

I popped a CentOS DVD in, got one image on the desktop and one mount
listed from the mount command and one nautilus box popped up..
I removed that and inserted a Mark Knopfler DVD and totem automatically
popped up to do it's usual bitch about plugins.
Mount showed one on /media/SHANGRILA and desktop had one ICON for it.

My best guess (admittedly, in blissful ignorance) is there is some
configuration problem on that unit.
