k3b and k9copy do not recognize my DVD-RW device

corneliu · #1 **(View Single Post)** 24th May 2008

Hey guys,
I installed k3b and k9copy via ports. Neither k3b nor k9copy recognize my DVD-RW device.
This is the message from k3b:

Code:

No CD/DVD writer found.
K3b did not find an optical writing device in your system. Thus, you will not be able to burn CDs or DVDs. However, you can still use other K3b features like audio track extraction or audio transcoding or ISO9660 image creation.

This is from k9copy:

Code:

DVD is not opened

How can I make my DVD-RW device visible to k3b and k9copy?
I just want tot mention that I can play DVDs just fine using MPlayer.
Thank you in advance,
Corneliu

Thank you mfaridi,
I checked the link and the dicussion there was about hal. I dont't think my issue is related to hal. Anyway hal seems to be OK.

Code:

$ find `kde-config --prefix`/lib/kde3/media_propsdlgplugin.so && echo "HAL is enabled."
/usr/local/lib/kde3/media_propsdlgplugin.so
HAL is enabled.
$

And there was a link in that thread that refers to making the IDE CD burner work on FreeBSD 5.x. The article states that the standard kernel for 5.x must be compiled from source. I am a very green newbie, I just want to make sure that compiling the kernel is the only way. Is it? My hope is that 7.0 kernel already contains the stuff that was missing in 5.x

Use these links

http://networking.ringofsaturn.com/U...SD-Burning.php

http://www.math.colostate.edu/~reinh...sd/kernel.html

Did you add these lines

Code:

perm xpt0 0666
perm pass0 0666
perm pass1 0666

in

Code:

/etc/devfs.conf

??

corneliu · #7 **(View Single Post)** 25th May 2008

Thank you mfaridi,
I took a look at those links, I think that compiling the kernel should be the last resort considering my freebsd experience.
I added
perm xpt0 0666
perm pass0 0666
perm pass1 0666
to /etc/devfs.conf
but still k3b and k9copy do not recognize my CD/DVD device

erno · #8 **(View Single Post)** 25th May 2008

Do you have atapicam kernel module loaded?

Code:

kldload atapicam

Add line

Code:

atapicam_load="YES"

to /boot/loader.conf to load atapicam at boot.

Did you restart devfs?

Code:

/etc/rc.d/devfs restart

Erno, thank you very much. Your stuff did it! Awesome!
