Re: problems with cdr and cdrom: possibly related to upgrade



Hi Cheryl,

I suggest to check if the right modules are loaded. You need ide-scsi and scsi_mod , 
additionally for mounting a cdrom device sr_mod and for cd recording sg . 
Type lsmod (as root) to check if the modules are there. If not, 
modprobe -v <modulename> . Then either the module is loaded or you get
an error message which may help.

HTH, Joachim
