Cannot open or playback Audio-CD
Last modified: 2009-01-08 20:30:02 UTC
Entering an Audio-CD on openSUSE 11.0 has placed an icon on the desktop named Audio-CD, which could be opened in Nautilus. Playback of .wav files has worked in Banshee and RealPlayer. I expected the same of a fairly vanilla installation of openSUSE 11.1/Gnome, but putting in an Audio-CD on both an x86_64 and a i386 installation (the same hardware as above) resulted in an error message box: Cannot mount Audio-disk Cannot find device /dev/sr0 Opening Nautilus shows the Audio-disk to the left But trying to right click and open it, the samme error message arrieves. (Eject works however). Opening Banshee, the Audio-disk does neither appear.
I am most definitely having this problem too, but only on the computers with a clean installation of OpenSUSE 11.1. My computers that started off with 11.1 RC1 (or earlier) and were upgraded to 11.1 final do not have this issue. Adding user to the 'cdrom' group did not help. Adding user to the 'disk' group helps a little bit, as it no longer complains that it can't find the device, and it actually mounts it on the Desktop like it should. The audio CD shows up in Banshee, but when I click on it, Banshee just hangs. Another thing I've noticed is that if you insert the audio CD before logging in, when you log in, the audio CD will be mounted on the desktop, but Banshee will still hang if you click on it. Working computer: ls -l /dev/sr1 brw-rw----+ 1 root disk 11, 1 2008-12-28 17:28 /dev/sr1 //My user was not part of 'cdrom', or 'disk' and it still worked. Non-working: ls -l /dev/sr0 brw-rw----+ 1 root disk 11, 1 2008-12-28 17:28 /dev/sr0 What I do know it this. It's not the drive. Both of those drives are USB drives, so I was swapping those around with no help. Same bug: #461229 I have this too.
I have the same problem. Also burning CDs or DVDs does not work with non-root accounts. Adding my user account to groups "disk" and "cd" helped after restarting KDE.
Also running into this from a new user account. Adding my user to the disk and cdrom groups fixes this. This issue needs to be fixed, and should be delivered as an online update. However, it's not related to Banshee at all, so I'm reassigning. It's strictly an issue with the default groups for a (new) user. Blake: the hang from Banshee is unrelated, and will be addressed with an online update hopefully later this week or next week.
I posit that for this to be fixed as an online update, a script that will run inside of an RPM payload will need to be written that iterates the users already on the system and adds them to the disk and cdrom groups. This is pretty critical. I can't use my optical drive at all without this fix.
Aaron, I can't back this statement up right now as I'm not sitting in front of my machine that has this issue, but Banshee _did_ hang even with adding the user to the disk and cdrom groups. My other laptop, which also is running 11.1 has no issues at all, and my user is not part of cdrom or disk... It's really odd.
Blake: yes, but the hang is unrelated to this bug. The hang should be fixed for RC2 of SLED 11 and should come out as an online update for 11.1 soon.
