Do post ur /etc/fstab entry.
the block device files for the DVD/CD drive are most prolly something like hdx,where x will be a,b,c etc..
if u have an ide hdd,then ur DVD drive will be /dev/hdb and if ur hdd is SATA,then DVD drive will be /dev/hda.inspect /dev/ directory for such a file and proceed.
You can check using below command:
Code:
~# ls -l /dev/ |grep hd*
first make sure u have a directory as follows;or mkdir One.
Code:
~#mkdir /media/cdrom0
nano is an easy-to-use editor from command line.edit /etc/fstab.append this entry at bottom.
Code:
~#nano -w /etc/fstab
/dev/hda /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
Save the file.
Now it will mount DVDs/CDs automatically.
Regarding local user not able to mount,you can make the group "cdrom",local users supplimentary or secondary group using "usermod -G" command.but as you use Suse,there must be some gui tools for GNOME or kde allowing user to do these things.some distros facilitate that if ur a member of "wheel" can execute all this.
In Linux,CD/DVDs are ejected by right clicking and selecting eject or umount option.
But In My Debian and Ubuntu,Thanks to HAL & co,by pressing the CD/DVD drive eject button also ejects the CD/DVD.suse also may have such an option
