tristure LQ Newbie Registered: Oct 2003 Posts: 18 Rep:	auto run applications (eg Mplayer when inserting a DVD) Hi, I'm wondering if there is some way to automatically launch a given program when a CD or DVD is inserted. For instance, when running 'doze, Power DVD launches automatically when I put a video DVD in my reader... Anyone heard of such a functionality in Linux? Thanx!
