Hi, Gregoire Favre: > Non DL discs are perfectly readable by other users... This is indeed strange. I have one DVD+R DL which can be read and mounted by root and by the desktop user of SuSE 10.2. What exactly does not work ? - reading from the block device (i assume /dev/sr1) Like: dd if=/dev/sr1 of=/dev/null bs=2048 - mounting What error messages do you get ? Have a nice day :) Thomas
