Hi All, I have googled and read as much as I can find but nothing I found tells me how to activate 2 dvd's. The one that came with the box can't write dvd and so I bought a dual layer BENQ and had it installed at the store. When I place a dvd in it, the green light flashes and when I point Xine to dvd1 I get no MRL. Both appear in /dev with symlinks as cdrom, cdrom1, cdwriter, cdwriter1, dvd, dvd1, and dvdwriter. When I try to play a music cd, I get permission denied. I have no trouble with the original, but can do nothing with the new one. If anyone can help or point to where I can find help, it would be greatly appreciated. I am running Fed4 on a 64 bit KV8 pro. -- G. Hare
Did you run kudzu (hardware detection) after the second DVD drive was installed? I have similar situation as you, one CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive and a DVD+-R/RW drive and everything works fine. Here are the entries in my /etc/fstab about the drives: /dev/hdd /media/cdrecorder auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 /dev/hdc /media/cdrecorder1 auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 --Kenny
