I put a CD in the cd-rom, close it and this message pops up. This is a fresh clean install of 11.2 w/ gnome. never hadthis issue before, I mean the sound didn’t play, but never had a problem with the CD-Rom not mounting.
-cheers
No.
Is it updated?
Did you have errors during the install?
Did you do the media check before install?
Ah, silly me…
sorry for wasting your time
lol
-cheers
Yes I updated, still no dice.
Its weird becasue if I go into nautilus, it shows there is a cd in the drive, but when I click on it to open and explore files, the same message pops up.
-cheers
What is on the CD
Its an OEM music CD, I did not burn it
…Haven’t tried a different one yet, very busy…
Can the type of CD really make a difference. I have never run into this problem before, whether or not its a music CD
There is one thing absolutely mandatory for mounting $WHATEVER, a file system.
Its an OEM music CD, I did not burn it
If this means, “Audio CD”, then guess what Audio CDs don’t have.
Can you play it in Banshee ?
Rip it in Brasero or k3b?
The drive doesn’t mount for any CD
It doesn’t have to
For example. With a DVD in the drive do this in a terminal.
mplayer dvd://1 -dumpstream -dumpfile movie.mpg
This will be better if the dvd is not encrypted, but it will still jump in to action regardless.
And you need mplayer installed.
OR
What happens if you chuck a music cd in and try ripping in k3b or jripper?

In general, starting a “1” works… but some titles, e.g. Disney, may
require you to specify the correct start (not 1) or else the chapters
will all be mixed up (not in order).
Also, in some cases you’ll have to use dvdnav instead of dvd.
Just some additional things to look out for. You’ll need to use a
client that can show you the chapter it’s starting out when played (or
sometimes your standalone player might show this).
It does not mount with any cd.
" Cannot Mount /dev/sr01 " see above
I have never sucessfully had sound come from this laptop (toshiba m45-s265). After messing with some things I have gotten certain things like youtube working, but this is ALL irrelevant becasue I have since done a clean install.
What I have done so far…
Due to previous sound battles, I started over and through this very website went and did the one-click installs for opensuse 11.2 codecs.
Than, I went and did several vlc installs, thinking that maybe banshee wasn’t liking my hardware…some of these installs clearly indicated they would help w/ gnome compatibility. I use gnome.
I mention this because I really don’t think this is a media issue. I think its a hardware issue.
Did you install openSUSE with the same cd/dvd drive you are referring to? If you did, it obviously recognised the hardware.
If you put the install cd/dvd in now, it doesn’t recognise it?!
Are you sure this is correct:
" Cannot Mount /dev/sr01 " see above
I would expect *" Cannot Mount /dev/sr0 " *
or " Cannot Mount /dev/sr1 " (If you had more than one cd/dvd)
Cannot Mount /dev/sr0 is correct.
I did install with this dvd drive. I just don’t know whee to start trouble shooting this one
-cheers
I’m sure you don’t mean to keep us in the dark, but some explanation of how you installed and why this dvd drive was not involved …etc…
Would help
You see I’m asking myself questions like: Why didn’t he use this drive?
What did he use?
and so on…
