No - I can't mount using the command line. It just spins for a long time and doesn't work with any CD I try.
try mounting again form the command line, and the post the last 10 to 20 lines of /var/log/messages. the tail command will help there
'tail -20 /var/log/messages' gets the last 20 lines.
Also try 'killall magicdev; killall autorun' then try mounting from the command line, again post the results from /var/log/messages.
There are so many possible reasons for this to fail, we really need more info to do more. Also posting 'ls -l /mnt' might be real helpfull, as would 'ls -l /dev/cdrom'
