Hi gyus, i got a problem...(do not know how/when did it started though). I cannot mount CD roms...(i do not speak about automounting) Here is what "dmesg" tells:
sr 5:0:0:0: [sr0] Unhandled sense code sr 5:0:0:0: [sr0] Result: hostbyte=0x00 driverbyte=0x08 sr 5:0:0:0: [sr0] Sense Key : 0x4 [current] sr 5:0:0:0: [sr0] ASC=0x3e ASCQ=0x2 sr 5:0:0:0: [sr0] CDB: cdb[0]=0x28: 28 00 00 00 e6 2a 00 00 02 00 end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 235688 Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 29461
I got more or less the same problem with almost all my data cds (i do not use audio ones) Also, i cannot even mount them manually (via mount /dev/cdrom0 <dir> or /dev/sr0/ <dir>) But one or two, mounts normally. (I use pcmanfm as a file manager, and yes i have ck-launch-session in my .xinitrc) The strange thing is that all of them can be mounted under Windows XP SP3...so it's not a hardware problem. Looked through Archlinux forums, but found nothing that i could use... Any clues?
P.S.1 : Most of the CDs are bootable ones, writen with "cdrecord -v speed=8 dev=/dev/scd0 -data -tao -multi". They boot normally though.

First, try stopping hal, this could be a polling issue that freaks out your drive. If that doesn't work out, please give more details about your system: - SATA? IDE? - What chipset - What recorder
