Slackware 12.0 Cdrom Access
Hi. Newbie? - maybe, but I have had other flavors of Linux in the past, and this is the first bird to give me so many headaches. I threatened to pluck all of it's feathers out if it didn't co-operate.
My problem is that I cannot access/mount the CDROM due to security settings. I probably had this problem with Suse 9.3, but it didn't matter because all of the driver packages I would ever need was installed during the two+ hour setup. I have scoured the forums, used tricks and tips, but guess I am just too stupid to figure out the SU command. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |
If you are wanting the cd to automount with KDE I believe first you have to add yourself to the plugdev and cdrom groups. Then if you right click on your desktop and go to configure desktop you can set it up so that an icon appears on your desktop when removable media is automounted.

su - Code:
su otheruser Also see Code:
su --help Then if you set up sudo (add people to the sudo group and modify sudoers file to grant privileges as you see fit), you can use Code:
sudo somecommand Hope it explains things a bit. |
