Hi all,

After unsuccessfully trying to open a cd-rom on Nautilus (I suppose it 
should be auto-mounted), I found the device was NOT mounted, and didn't 
manage to mount it manually (see terminal msgs below).

I don't suppose it's a HW problem, since the machine dual-boots with 
Windows - where the same media can be read normally on same drive.

Any hints ?
