  1. CDROM problem

    in Hardware

    Posted

    I have checked that even if on windows xp everything work fine, cdrw and dvdrom are set with the correct jumper setting.

     

    also could you tell me how can i check the DMA setting of my devices, look like my hdd drive are so slow...

     

    It's not some kind of hardware configuration problem, is it? Have you checked the master / slave settings on the drives? Make sure the drive that's "hdc" is set  to master, the drive that's "hdd" is set to slave, and *neither* is set to cable select...

    [root@localhost mnt]# mount cdrom

    mount: /dev/hdc already mounted or /mnt/cdrom busy

    mount: according to mtab, /dev/hdc is already mounted on /mnt/cdrom

    [root@localhost mnt]# mount cdrom2

    mount: No medium found

    /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom auto umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0

    /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom2 auto umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0

     

    I have changed to:

    /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom ISO960 umask=0,user,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0

    /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom2 ISO9660 umask=0,user,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0

     

    The cdrom works now which is a cdrw

    my fstab look like this:

    cd linked to:

     

    [root@localhost adam]# ls -al /dev/cdrom

    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Dec 20 08:53 /dev/cdrom -> hdc

    [root@localhost adam]# ls -al /dev/cdrom0

    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Dec 20 08:53 /dev/cdrom0 -> hdc

    [root@localhost adam]# ls -al /dev/cdrom1

    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Dec 20 08:53 /dev/cdrom1 -> hdd

    [root@localhost adam]# ls -al /dev/cdrom2

    ls: /dev/cdrom2: No such file or directory

     

    if you look at the fstab and compare to my dev dir i have 4 cdroms listed

    in the dev dir i have

     

    cdrom     hda6     loop7        ram12   shm         tty15  tty32  tty5   ttyS0     vcs7
cdrom0    hdb      md           ram13   snd         tty16  tty33  tty50  ttyS1     vcsa
cdrom1    hdb1     md0          ram14   sound       tty17  tty34  tty51  ttyS2     vcsa0
cdroms    hdc      mem          ram15   sr0         tty18  tty35  tty52  ttyS3     vcsa1

    and the fstab

    /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom auto umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0

    /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom2 auto umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0

    Hiya, just double check it this option, and everything is on std level.

    thx

     

    Here's a long shot but it can cause all kinds of trouble. Go to Mandrake Control Center>Security>Levels and Checks and see what security level you have set. Anything greater than "High" causes real usability problems and is unnecessary for a desktop. These problems are frequently manifested as permission problems.

    the rpm file i got come from rpmdrake which is connected to internet

     

    and one from pbone.net which is for mandrake 10.x

     

    the other files i have tried come from mozilla web site, this file has been removed from my computer.

     

     

     

    hemtah.  I am not sure we are talking about the same thing.

     

    Where did you get your download of FireFox in the first place.

    I think we need to know that, to be certain whether we are talking about an RPM of Firefox or the usually downloaded firefox-installer. They are two entirely different things.

     

    Also if it is not an expressly Mandrake RPM of Firefox but an RPM for some other Linux OS such as Fedora or Suse then that could be part of the problem.

     

    I hope you can see why I ask the first question.

    Pmpatrick is right about the gear symbol thing, my mistake.

     

    John.

    well, i have removed firefox rpm has you said, this is now the 10 times i am trying to install it and running from my desktop, and it's not a success.

    well, in my firefox folder, firefox file does not have a blue wheel? is this normal? i think yes. I just made a ls -s ... to put a link to /usr/bin location, from here i have copied the file but it does run firefox, but if i type firefox on CLI it works fine...omg what i am going to do.

     

    Thank again John
