util-linux-ng 2.17-1

Hey everyone,

I've neglected posting this for quite sometime, since util-linux-2.16.2-1 was working perfectly. But recently, both util-linux-2.16 and 2.17 and not allowing optical drives to mount.

So far I've tried checking all the logs and I get this result::

dmesg | tail

Info fld=0x0
sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] ASC=0x21 ASCQ=0x0
sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] CDB: cdb[0]=0x28: 28 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 00

Any insight would be amazing! Thank you all

Had the same issue, I was helped by matzo with;

I think this i related to the problem described here: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/18119.
You could try mount the media with the filesystem-switch '-t iso9660'. If this works you can apply this patch (http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/util-lin … 3674eb30fc) on the package 'util-linux-ng-2.17'.

then even better:-)

Hi FerBenzaa,

I modified the PKGBUILD from the ABS and created a compressed file which also includes the mentioned patch. You can download this package at http://www.file-upload.net/download-227 … ar.gz.html. Simply unzip and run 'makepkg' in that directory.
Another possibility is a downgrade to util-linux-ng-2.16.2-1. This should also resolve that problem.

I hope this helps you somehow...

It certainly helped me.

I just used the pacman wiki & downgraded to the older version of util-linux-ng

# pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/util-linux-ng-2.16.2-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz
loading package data...

(1/1) upgrading util-linux-ng [##################] 100%

# pacman -Q util-linux-ng
util-linux-ng 2.16.2-1

Now my data cds mount again:-)

As always my thanks to matzo (plus the forums in general).

Thanks for the reply.

I got a tip to sync an ABS tree... download the patch and apply it to the pkgbuild. I have done that correctly (as the change gets made in the code) but the problem still prevails... Even downgrading to util-linux-2.16.x gives me almost identical errors.

Any other clues?

Thanks!

HAHA I was getting this because the disk I have is blank. Reversing to util-linux-ng 2.16 OR patching 2.17 fixed the issue. But, current 2.17 from core unpatched was giving my original issue on all disks.

But remember that dmesg will give you errors if the disk is blank... because it cannot read the filesystem

And also, I'm relying on HAL and thunar-volman for mounting and I guess it won't give the 'click to mount' option on the thunar sidebar like gnome and nautilus have.

Thanks all.

Updating to util-linux-ng 2.17-1-1 solved the auto-mouting problem for me.
(Im using pcmanfm in Icewm)

I found 2.17-1-1 here:
http://schlunix.org/archlinux/core/os/i … pkg.tar.xz

hmm - today auto-mount did not work again
