Hello, |

A few weeks ago I updated all of the gentoo systems I manage to udev. |
| 4 |
(Late to the udev party). Well I've got vlc, mplayer, and kaffeine |
| 5 |
working splendidly on 2 different intel portables. However, an Athlon |
| 6 |
on an Asus A7v8X-X motherboard is not happy with the dvd or the |
| 7 |
audio: Works fine, as audio CDs play just fine. |

Kernel (miscellaneous from config file: |

CONFIG_FB=y |
| 43 |
CONFIG_FB_NVIDIA=m |
| 44 |
# CONFIG_FB_NVIDIA_I2C is not set |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Symptoms: |
| 47 |
When (2.6.14-gentoo-r2)booting I get this error: |
| 48 |
AT boot time: screen errors related to lm_sensors, which I |
| 49 |
do not think are related to audio and DVD problems. |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
video: |
| 52 |
vlc's gui fires up but nothing happens when I select to play a DVD |
| 53 |
that plays on an intel portable.. |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
Kaffeine gives more information: |
| 56 |
"The source can't be read. |
| 57 |
Maybe you don't have enough rights for this, or the sourece doesn't |
| 58 |
contain data (e.g. no disc in drive). (/dev/dvd)" |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
Sooooooooooo: |
| 61 |
I did notice The dvd devices are missing: |
| 62 |
ls -alg /dev/dvd |
| 63 |
ls: /dev/dvd: No such file or directory |
| 64 |
likewise video is missing: |
| 65 |
ls -alg /dev/video |
| 66 |
ls: /dev/video: No such file or directory |
| 67 |
|
| 68 |
The dvd/video devices are not being created by the boot process |
| 69 |
and udev, or I've munged things up in the kernel. Ideas on how to |
| 70 |
diagnose and fix the dvd mapping to hdc are welcome. |
