Look people, it is time we speak rationally about the mounting CDs and Playing CDs problem. These problems have appeared on the list for at least 3 months and we have gotten only a few truths out of the question. Somewhere among the developer(s) there is someone who knows how the system decides what too do with a CD and how that doing is controlled. But that person(s) doesn't evidently read the list and has never cleared this up even after several bugzillas. So if anyone know how to get the correct developer to reply pleas share that with us or with the developer(s). But somethings we know and some wrong information is floating around.This is not a Hal problem. It is a udev problem. If anyone on a 586 system who is having a problem with audio (and probably video ) CDs being played butt not producing an icon on the desktop, that problem has been solved. I have posted the solution at least twice on the list but I would be glad to post it again: Note: this has only been tested in GNOME and does not work on 686 systems in bugzilla # 513495 Aram Agajanian poses a solution for the Audio CD problem and it works. First you get udev-141-4.fc11.src.rpm from the link below. http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/udev/141/4.fc11/src/udev-141-4.fc11.src.rpm Get the spec file with rpm -i udev-141-4.fc11.src.rpm Remove patch4 from the spec file by commenting it out. Do a rpmbuild -bp then a rpmbuild -bb Install the files created (not the devel files) udev, udev-static libudev0 and libvolume_id Reboot and the Audio CD icon is back. Further problems will have to be addressed by a develper who is responsible for the udev code. -- ======================================================================= You will give someone a piece of your mind, which you can ill afford. ======================================================================= Aaron Konstam telephone: (210) 656-0355 e-mail: akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
