Make sure that there's a symlink from your DVD drive to /dev/dvd and that the DVD drive has 666 permissions. Here's an example: chmod 666 /dev/acd1c ln -sf /dev/acd1c /dev/dvd Of course, you have to be root to do this. Also, you might want to put this in a startup script if you run 5.1 and reboot often. My device links don't persist under devfs. -- Matthew Graybosch http://www.starbreaker.net "I am become root, shatterer of kernels."
