Hello,

I just experienced the same problem. Could you solve your problem?
If so could you post the solution?

Some data of mine:
I'm in the groups:

groups=10(wheel),11(floppy),18(audio),19(cdrom),27 (video),35(games),85(usb),100(users),250(portage), 443(plugdev),1000(rh),1001(wireshark)

CD/DVD device:

$ ls -l /dev/cdrom
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2008-05-09 04:45 /dev/cdrom -> sr0

$ ls -l /dev/sr0
brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 11, 0 2008-05-09 04:45 /dev/sr0

dbus and hal are running. USB disks, cameras or MP3-players are
correctly mounted. Only CDs are not.

Tips, comments highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

What does /etc/fstab look like?

If you're using hald to auto-mount, the cdrom should *not* be in
/etc/fstab.

Hello,
thanks.

/dev/cdrom was with the option noauto in fstab. I disabled this entry
and it just worked fine.
