ok, i'm back to having a usable f11 beta x86_64 system -- fresh
install -- so here's what happens. when i insert a home burned f11
beta x86_64 DVD, here's what shows up in /var/log/messages:
Apr 15 08:19:25 localhost gnome-keyring-daemon[2777]: adding removable
location: volume_label_Fedora_11_Beta_x86_64_DVD at /media/Fedora
11-Beta x86_64 DVD
and when i "eject":
Apr 15 08:20:09 localhost gnome-keyring-daemon[2777]: removing
removable location: volume_label_Fedora_11_Beta_x86_64_DVD
so far, so good.
on the other hand, when i insert the aforementioned samsung printer
CD that came with the printer, *nothing* shows up in
/var/log/messages. if, however, i manually mount with:
# mount /dev/sr0 /mnt
i see:
Apr 15 08:21:25 localhost gnome-keyring-daemon[2777]: adding removable
location: volume_label_SAMSUNG_MFP at /mnt
so the CD is clearly mountable, it's just not being handled
automatically by DeviceKit for some reason.
is there another log file you'd like me to monitor while i try this
again?

p.s. once the CD is mounted, this is the corresponding line from the
"mount" command:
/dev/sr0 on /mnt type iso9660 (ro)
which looks fine, AFAICT.
