Problem with CD-RW in FC4.

One of my client did a fresh install of FC4.

The system is pretty old ...

Intel Celeron 855 Mhz,
810E HIS Motherboard,
Samsung 20GB hard disk,
LG CD Re-writer.

The problem is ...No matter what CD he puts in, It is being read as if it were a Audio CD!

What maybe wrong?

He claims that everything used to work fine with FC3.

How is the CD-R/RW drive defined in /etc/fstab?

It was the default installation.

So the lines in Fstab where just the normal.

Moreover, I found out that the user was like trying to use SCSI Emulation, leading to a whole lot of problems.

I told him not to use that, and wow! Problem solved.

I still don't know the reason why the CD-RW was shown like a Audio CD.
But he now confirms, that the problem stands solved.
