I think all of your stuff would have worked at first, before you upgraded. One of the newer kernels or SOMETHING decided that the old SATA scheme of dev/scd(x) has been changed to /dev/hd(x) and now all DvD player apps complain that they cannot now access nor find the device. Xine complains, but when I hit the DvD button the movie cranks right up. I've been bitching about this for months.
