I have posted a question about trying to get Totem to recognise the optical devices on my Acer laptop, on a previous occasion but never received a reply.
I have a partial answer to this, but now another question. Totem is still empty without finding any optical devices when started. But if I invoke XCDRoast first, and select a device, and then invoke totem. Totem comes up showing all the optical devices, internal and external CD/DVD drives, and I can select whichever i want to use to listen to a CD/DVD. My question is:- what does XCDRoast kick in on starting to recognise the optical devices, that totem doesn't? There was reference to glade and such in the documentation, and I installed that and other things I thought might help, but it did nothing to assist with this situation, and I am thinking of ripping it out of the system again. I haven't needed it for anything else. Thanks in advance.
