I have an IBM ThinkPad X23 running FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE, and am having various problems with my CD-RW drive. It's part of the Ultrabase, which is how the X-series laptops add some peripherals. I didn't do anything special to configure it; it just worked. I had previously used it to install some software, but I don't have any CD-ROMs around right now for testing. I had never tried anything else, since I didn't need to burn any CDs and I hadn't gotten around to getting sound support compiled. Now that I've done so, I find that I can't really do much. If I try to put in an audio CD, with the GUI CD Player app, I get the message, "Error accessing cdrom device. Please check to make sure cdrom drive support is compiled into the kernel, and that you have permission to access the device. Reason: no such file or directory." Using cdcontrol on the command line, I get: cdcontrol: no disc in drive /dev/acd0c even when there is. Burning CDs doesn't work either; I constantly get: monopoly/ # burncd data test.iso fixate burncd: open(/dev/acd0c): Device not configured It does register on boot: monopoly/ # dmesg | grep acd acd0: CD-RW <CD-W28E> at ata1-master PIO4 Any suggestions for where I should start to poke? I haven't found anything too helpful online. Thanks. Jesse Sheidlower
