Hi Joe,
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm currently installing the DVD release of
Fedora, so hopefully will be exposed to all IDEs. I can use the GUI to
browse and copy files, but since I'm trying to prepare for Linux
certification I'm trying to do everything via the keyboard (it's
certainly an eye opener for some things!). I intend to look at Xfce at
my earliest opportunity, since I am becoming a little KDE'd out!
Best wishes,
And.

Simple things like mounting the CD drive from a command line can be

locate: one has to create a device folder (at least, that's how I fixed
the problem in the end, having tried (and failed) to adopt the "Fedora
way", assuming there is such a thing!)]
I don't use KDE, but I do have a suggestion. In Xfce, there's a
control panel (under Settings, not Administration) called "Removable
Drives and Media." If KDE has that, or an equivalent, you should be
able to set it to mount drives when they're detected and, if you
prefer (I don't) automatically browse it. If not, have you checked
with a KDE mailing list or forum? This may be DE related, if so,
asking there might be the quickest way to get things working.
