From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Sam Liddicott Date: Mon, 03 Jan 2005 12:31:38 +0000 Subject: cdrom devices missing Message-Id: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-hotplug@vger.kernel.org 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.
