Thanks for replying Kenny. I did not run Kudzu, but I have the same /etc/fstab entries as you. /dev/hdd /media/cdrecorder auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 /dev/hdc /media/cdrecorder1 auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 I use gnome and when I check my Hardware Browser, the Benq is listed there as well. -- G.

Well earlier in this afternoon I talked about fixing a problem with my machine which involved the existence of a /sys directory on the system. Without this directory no entries are placed in fstab and /media entries will not appear for your devices.
Now I don't understand this completely yet but there is more than kudzu involved in making your devices usable. The mysterious hal must be involved.
Also I would expect udev is somewhere involved in creating the appropriate /dev files. ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University telephone: (210)-999-7484
