I've been having some issues regarding my CDROM. I have a CD-rw drive, and a DVD/CD-rw drive installed. My issue is that I'll put a CD into either one, and most of the time nothing will happen. No options like when I plug in my Ipod, or USB, etc. No icon, it just doesn't seem to be mounted. I look in /media/, and nothing is there. Now, sometimes if I reboot my entire computer, and log back in, it will work. But say it's a CD with a bunch of Pictures/videos on it, and I open it up with Dolphin and just minimize it to work on it later, I come back say half an hour to it, and the Dolphin browser with everything on the CD is still there, but I can't access what's on the disk. The disk just magically disappears, it's not mounted anymore, nothing. If I then take it out, then put it back in, back to square one. Nothing happens, and I would have to reboot my computer again and hope for the best. As you can see, this is very annoying, and any suggestions as to what I can do to fix this, I would be greatly appreciative.
Some background info, I recently installed Ubuntu 10.4 LTS 64 bit, and a few days later I installed Kubuntu through the package manager in gnome, installed the kubuntu-desktop, etc. Now I can't say for sure if I could mount CD's in Gnome before I installed Kubuntu, but I did install Ubuntu through the Live CD no problem, so it had worked then. I also never had this problem with I was using I believe it was 9.10, the release before 10.4.
