inability to use cd rom or dvd burner
Here is my conundrum . I am unable to access my cd or dvd
after I supposedly alter the BIOS setting to enable a "Live"
CD or DVD to be used.
Would ,changing the Hard Drive or Motherboard remedy the situation.
Thanking you,
katosan

Hi All,
I just bought the SUN x2200m2. After I installed Solaris, I cannot see the CD/DVD ROM. I cannot mount the CD/DVD ROM since it says already mounted. When I try unmount it I get message that CD/DVD is not mounted. :(
Any idea please.

Hi All,
I'm a total noob when it comes to troubleshooting Sun hardware issues, however, I've been tasked with just a task. How can I verify if the DVD rom is working in a Sun system? We've put in the dvd, but can't do anything. This is from command line.
Thanks.

NAME
cdde - Compact Disc Detect & Execute
SYNOPSIS
cdde [-c filename] [-rbvVh]
DESCRIPTION
cdde is a program that detects when a cdrom drive on your system has had a disc inserted.
When it finds a disc inserted in the drive it will attempt to determine the type of the disc, and execute a specified command.
This means you can put in a dvd and your favorite dvd software will start, or put in a data cd and it will be automatically mounted for
you.
Right now cdde can detect the following types of discs:
* audio cd
* data cd
* dvd
* mixed audio/data cd
* vcd
* svcd
* blank cdr/dvdr
For now the dvd checking is just a bit of magic that checks to see if there's a "video_ts" directory on the disc. Same goes for the vcd
checking: it just looks for a "vcd" directory on the disc.
cdde reads its configuration from "~/.cdde.xml" unless otherwise specified on the command line.
OPTIONS
-r, --run
Run commands on disc already in drive when is started.
-b, --batch
Batch mode: check all drives once then exit. (implies -r)
-c, --config <filename>
Use the config file <filename>. (Default is ~/.cdde.xml)
-v, --verbose
Print out lots of information.
-V, --version
Print out version information.
-h, --help
Print Display this help and exit.
FILES
~/.cdde.xml
SEE ALSO
cdde.xml(5)
