[solved] dvd/cd do not mount automagically... kde(mod) 4.1

Hi!

I am configuring my vostro laptop, and having issues when I insert a dvd or cd... it is not automagically mounted...
I have added hal to rc.conf daemons

my user is in these groups: lp wheel games dbus hal video audio optical floppy storage scanner camera users

my fstab have:
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom   iso9660    ro,user,noauto,unhide   0      0
/dev/dvd /mnt/dvd   udf,iso9660    ro,user,noauto,unhide   0      0

/mnt/cdrom and /mnt/dvd are created... 755, owner root, group root (in my desktop I am using it this way and it works)

any idea?

This is why.

If you want to use automounting remove all references to removable devices from fstab, make sure that hal is running and you should be all set.

EDIT: Also, you should remove your user from dbus and hal groups.

oops, you are right fwojciec... I have changed that and it works ok

anyway, I do not understand my desktop... it is misconfigured and it is working anyway...
