CD-ROM and CDRW no longer found since switch to g-v-m

[Brent Bailey <bailey@utias.utoronto.ca>]

Last week I switched from using magicdev to gnome-volume-manager for all
its hotplug goodness.  The hotplug works fine, but for some reason I
can't see my CD-Rom and CDRW.

The versions used are:

# dpkg -l hal hotplug dbus-1 gnome-volume-manager
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
|
Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err:
uppercase=bad)
||/ Name           Version        Description
+++-==============-==============-============================================
ii  hal            0.4.7-3        Hardware Abstraction Layer
ii  hotplug        0.0.20040329-2 Linux Hotplug Scripts
ii  dbus-1         0.23.4-1       simple interprocess messaging system
ii  gnome-volume-m 1.2.0-2        GNOME daemon to auto-mount and manage
media

When I run discover to try and find the drives I get:

# discover cdrom
open_sock(): No such device

I have no ide drives in dev (using SATA hard disk)

# ls /dev/hd*
ls: /dev/hd*: No such file or directory

though my fstab points to these:

/dev/hdd        /media/cdrom    iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0
/dev/hdd        /media/cdrom0   iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0
/dev/hdc        /media/cdrom1   iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0
/dev/hdd        /cdrom          iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0

of course, nothing about /dev/hd* shows up in my mtab.

The kernel that I'm running is 2.6.8-1-k7

I tried changing back to magicdev, but still cannot find them.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Brent
