Post subject: | dvd and cd not working |
Hi yesterday evening I tried installing KM on my pc. I just received a spurios 8259 error on IRQ7, but both cd and dvd do not work. I tried changing path /dev/cdrom and /dev/cdrom1 but without result. Something to suggest? Thank you Max ![]() |

Dude, Wiki is your friend. Check the section out on optical drives. I don't think they are related to the 8259 errors. HTH Andrew Lynch http://knoppmythwiki.homelinux.org/inde ... stallHowTo |

Something to suggest? Thank you Max ![]() This fixed my problem.... Fix incorrect user:group of optical drive For some reason, my recent installations from R4V5 have all resulted in the CD-ROM or DVD drive getting set to the wrong user and group. CDs and DVDs won't play if this occurs. The steps to check for it are found here (again thanks to tjc): http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2566 Scroll down to his message on how to check for the problem: root@black:~ # ls -al /dev/dvd /dev/cdrom /dev/scd0 If this returns something other than "root" and "cdrom" for the user/group of /dev/scd0, then as root do a chown root:cdrom /dev/scd0 and all should be well. |
