Subject: cdrom devices missing
Date: Mon, 03 Jan 2005 12:31:38 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <crbdo8$q5n$1@sea.gmane.org> (raw)

udev makes my hard disk nodes device and partition nodes OK, but does 
not create my cdrom device nodes at all.

I have a debian testing/unstable install that is a de-mepis-ized 
latest-MEPIS installation.

I have debian udev_0.050 build from source (apt-get -b source)

My cdrom is on hdc, I even tried adding to rules.d

KERNEL="hdc" SYMLINK="dvd cdrom dvdrecorder cdrecorder"

but no joy

If I make device nodes by hand then mplayer et al work fine.


I had similar problems with my sound card until I listed my sound card 
driver explicitly in /etc/modules - is this the correct procedure for 
all hardware support with udev? I expected hotplug/udev to "discover" 
the soundcard hardware and do all the right tricks with it like it does 
for removable device, perhaps I am wrong?

However as the kernel already recognizes my cdrom and manually making 
the device nodes is enough for things to work I can't see that adding 
anything to /etc/modules would work here.
