Description of problem: after installing 2.6.9-1.11_FC2. I cannot do operations with my cdrom drivers a normal user. eg eject /mnt/cdrom2 needless to say the k3b k3b-0.11.18-1 doesnt work either. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.9-1.11_FC2 How reproducible: I have only 1 FC2 box to test on so i dont quite know. google doesnt return any results for quries on the subject. that worries me. Steps to Reproduce: 1. install 2.6.9-1.11_FC2 via yum 2. reboot 3. login as a normal user. 4. try and eject one of the cdrom drives by (eject /mnt/cdom2) Actual results: eject: unable to open `/dev/cdrom2' Expected results: should eject Additional info: my cdrom/dvdrom are hdc/hdd Here is my grub config title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.11_FC2) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.11_FC2 ro rhgb quiet root=LABEL=/ hda=noprobe hdb=noprobe ide3=noprobe ide4=noprobe ide5 =noprobe selinux=no initrd /initrd-2.6.9-1.11_FC2.img here is a dump of my dmesg Linux version 2.6.9-1.11_FC2 (bhcompile.redhat.com) (gcc version 3.3.3 20040412 (Red Hat Linux 3.3.3-7)) #1 Sun Jan 2 15:49:30 EST 2005 BIOS-provided physical RAM map: BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009f000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 000000000009f000 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000000f0000 - 0000000000100000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 000000003ffec000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 000000003ffec000 - 000000003ffef000 (ACPI data) BIOS-e820: 000000003ffef000 - 000000003ffff000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 000000003ffff000 - 0000000040000000 (ACPI NVS) BIOS-e820: 00000000ffff0000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) 127MB HIGHMEM available. 896MB LOWMEM available.
