Description of problem: Some CDs, apparently those using a UDF filesystem won't mount automatically. ISO9660 CDs work as expected. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.5.8.1-5.fc6 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert UDF format CD Actual results: Nothing is mounted. Expected results: CD is mounted under /media and appears on desktop. Additional info: There's nothing fundamentally broken about mounting since it is possible to manually mount the failed CDs and they can be read OK. It's only the automounting which is broken. Looking through bugzilla it's possible that this is related to bug#212640 which describes a similar problem when mounting DVDs. I've tried this on two separate machines running fully updated FC6, with different CDR or CDRW drives and the effect is the same on both. I'll attach the output from lshal --monitor following the insertion and ejecting of an ISO9660 and a UDF CD. The obvious difference is that the failed UDF CD shows storage.removable.media_available = false whereas this shows as true for ISO9660.

Can you attach 1) output of lshal; 2) output of "/lib/udev/vol_id /dev/hdc" (as root) where /dev/hdc is your optical drive. Thanks.
Created attachment 142550 [details] Output of lshal In addition to the device whose details I've attached here I've got a second machine which also does this, but currently have no easy way to transfer files off it. Its optical device is a SAMSUNG_CD_R/RW_SW_408B and it exhibits the same behaviour. If it would be helpful I can find a way to get the lshal output from that drive attached too.
Created attachment 142551 [details] Output of /lib/hal/vol_id /dev/hda I also checked this output on my other machine and it's the same on both.
