Re: I need help setting up my DVD

Hi,

I have:

$ l /dev/dvd
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            4 May 23 20:22 /dev/dvd -> scd0

$ l /dev/scd0 
brw-rw----    2 root     cdrom     11,   0 Jul  5  2000 /dev/scd0

$ groups 
mattia bin disk lp mail cdrom

$ cat /etc/fstab | grep dvd
/dev/dvd      /cdrom          iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto         0       0

if you are passing "hdc=scsi" to the kernel your device won't be attached to /dev/hdc anymore, it will appear as /dev/scd0

try a setup like mine:
ln -s /dev/scd0 /dev/dvd  

and put the above line in fstab, it should work (TM)

PS: try xine or mplayer, I think they are more mature than vlc and ogle
