The output from: ls -la /dev/dvd is: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2006-08-07 06:28 /dev/dvd -> hdc
The output from: dmesg | grep -i dvd is: [17179574.336000] hdc: MATSHITAUJ-840D, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive [17179574.336000] hdc: ATAPI 24X DVD-ROM DVD-R CD-R/RW drive, 2048kb Cache, UDMA(33)
So is my machine "looking" in the wrong place or does -> hdc include drive hda??
Well, if using totem to read a DVD still generates an error regarding an inability to read /dev/hda4, something is definitely broken. However, the /dev/dvd link is intact and is pointing at the right place, so I'm a bit stumped.
