...but I normaly use KDE and konqueror showes nothing and comes up with error messages: "mount: /dev/cdrom already mounted or /mnt/cdrom busy
Please check that the disk is entered correctly."
Did you select the "show hidden files" option in konqueror?
Second, it sounds like you have auto-mount enabled. If you do like homey mentioned and select the "show" hidden files, it should work.
Yeah, I checked prdallan's suggestion. Konqueror is configured to show hidden files and automount is not activated.
The problem is now, that I can't mount and see any files, not even visible files.
When I typed ls -la in the command line no Rock(y?)Ridge or Joilet extentions were listed.

Sorry that was too short from me.
Since you can see the files with Gnome, it is not a problem with Joliet and Rockridge in the kernel, forget about those.
And use ls -la /dev/cdrom for your CD-ROM. But that wont help any either I just realized, since Gnome sees the files ls will probably as well. You still have to mount correctly and I have not a clue anymore sorry .
<edit> That's not right either, since Gnome sees them it is mounted...
What now?
Distribution: Slackware 9.1 but FUBAR with packages I compile myself, and OpenBSD (not exactly a distro) on QEMU

Maybe you can make another, small (a few megs), similar cd image with hidden folders (sic) and try to burn it onto a cdrw.
If it shows the same symptoms, put it up or attach it, or maybe put it on a website or a server of some kind, if you have one. Or mail me at williampoetra_NOSPAM_@yahoo.com, I'll try it.
@wpyh the problem right now is that I can't mount any CD's with KDE Konquere anymore. When I use Gnome with it's filemanager I can mount CD's without anyproblems and can also see hidden files.
The only problem is that I like KDE more than Gnome...
