When I insert a CD in my CD drive, I cannot see it in through terminal/ thunar. I have udev and dbus installed. My /etc/fstab has the cdrom line uncommented and set to auto-mount. What is going on? How do I read the contents of my CD?

Try to mount it by hand using /dev/sr0 as the device.
Arch specific cd symlinks are now no longer created.
cd and net persistent rules will no longer be autogenerated,
see <https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Udev> for details.
Errors are now logged (possibly to the console) by default.
There's a couple threads on this matter e.g. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 20#p961420

I already tried manually mounting it. It gave me an error: mount: block device /dev/sr0 write-protected, mounting read only; mount: you must specify file system type

Please post the exact command you used to mount it.
mount -o ro /dev/sr0 /media/cd/works for me.

I tried the command you posted and it still tells me I need to specify type.

What is on the CD? Is it blank (empty) or AudioCD?

AudioCD
You can't mount an AudioCD because there's no filesystem on it - it's just a stream of bits.
Run the app you want (e.g. cd player or ripper) and the app should handle it on its own.

Dammit. I see. I didn't know that. Thanks!
