I'm using a pioneer 8x DVD-ROM drive (don't know what model) with this line in /etc/fstab to mount the drive:
Code:
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,users,ro,umask=000 0 0
DVD videos mount and play fine in totem.
Audio CDs and data DVDs don't appear to mount at all (they can't be seen by root or other users)
CD-ROMs and CD-Rs mount, but only a few of the files on the disc can be seen or the directories are completely garbled, eg:
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec 0 0
I no longer get garbled directories, but I still can't read audio CDs and data DVDs. CD-ROMs and CD-Rs still only appear to have a few of the files on the disc.

Yeah, a couple of them are DirectCDs, most of my CD-Rs are in Joliet format though.
My CDs are burned using either CloneCD 4.1.0.1 or Roxio Easy CD Creator 5.1.0.104
My Mandrake 10 CE CD-Rs mount just fine, everything is present and correct on them.
