EdN Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 I just installed Fedora 12 from a DVD . The process completed without incident. I then inserted a DVD into my internal drive and nothing happened. I then logged out and logged in again as root, and tried again-same result; nothing! Could it have something to do with the new PolicyKit? I didn't have this problem with Fedora 11.

trq Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Have you tried mounting the dvd manually? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/186780-fedora-12-doesnt-detect-internal-dvd-drive/#findComment-986653 Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdN Posted January 1, 2010 Author Share Posted January 1, 2010 Yes, it mounts manually, but it's not as convenient. I'd still like to know why the DVD drive isn't automatically mounted and displayed when a disk is inserted as happens in F11. I'm pretty sure the problem has something to do with authorization via PolicyKit.

premiso Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 You can do a shell script on start to auto mount it. Just an fyi Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/186780-fedora-12-doesnt-detect-internal-dvd-drive/#findComment-986681 Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Sorry, I'm not a Fedora user so I'm not even sure how its auto-mounting works. Do you have an autofs service and is it running?
