Dear Leann,

many thanks for your email, which I appreciate much.
The problem with the DVD did bug me for quite some time. I actually 
ended up switching players some days ago. The DVD player remains able to 
boot from CD/DVD, but cannot be accessed. Wery recently I noticed that 
the cdrom related devices in /dev where missing. So is started to 
investigate. It seems that this guy for some reason is half broken: I 
can boot, but it communicates to not be active, while showing up 
correctly in the logs. I have still a hard time to understand how this 
can happen, but that's what our sysadmin and I think has happend. After 
switching player (with identical hardware) all was fine.

my system
$> uname -a
Linux c1ulu34 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 11 23:41:49 UTC 2008 i686 
GNU/Linux


cheers

Thomas
