Hello,
On a Debian Etch running 2.6.16-2, if I connect an external DVD USB
writer (Samsung SE-S164L), I get this in /var/log/syslog:
kernel: usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 12
kernel: usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
kernel: scsi10 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
kernel: usb-storage: device found at 12
kernel: usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
kernel: Vendor: TSSTcorp Model: CD/DVDW SH-S162L Rev: TS05
kernel: Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 00
kernel: sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 48x/48x writer dvd-ram cd/rw xa/form2 cdda
tray
kernel: sr 10:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0
kernel: usb-storage: device scan complete
Sep 5 22:54:54 localhost udevd-event[2665]: find_free_number: %e is
deprecated, will be removed and is unlikely to work correctly. Don't use it.
So it is detected properly by hal and udev makes the /dev/sr0 device. So
far so good. However, I do not get a KDE prompt asking what to do if I
put in a DVD or CD with data on it as KDE asks if I put a disc in the
internal IDE optical drive. And it doesn't even mount it. I have to
mount it manually using a mount point. Another point, the drive is
successfully detected by k3b in KDE.
So what is different between this external writer and the internal
optical drive that makes the automounting of a disk different? What am I
missing?
thanks,
->HS
