 Posted: Wed Nov 04, 2009 1:15 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] How to change /dev/cdrom in kscd (KDE4) ? |
 |
|
Hi there,
I have my optical drives under /media/sr0 and /media/sr1.
kscd is trying to access /dev/cdrom, which doesn't exists, so I can't play any audioCD.
In kscd for KDE3, there was an option to change the device to use. in KSCD for KDE4, I didn't find out any option in the few available to change the device to use.
For ripping the CD, I use 'asunder' in which I can specify to use /media/sr1 and it works : I can grab the audio tracks and convert it in mp3. So I assume the /media/sr1 is the correct device to use, but I just can't do it in kscd.
I've found a .kscdrc file in $HOME$/.kde/apps, but that file doesn't seems to be linked to kscd as this file already specifies /media/sr1 instead of /dev/cdrom.
Thanks in advance for any help

You can use udev.
Create /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules with:
| Code: |
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:00:07.1-scsi-1:0:0:0", SYMLINK+="cdrom", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:00:07.1-scsi-1:0:0:0", SYMLINK+="cdrw", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:00:07.1-scsi-1:0:0:0", SYMLINK+="dvd", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:00:07.1-scsi-1:0:0:0", SYMLINK+="dvdrw", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
|
Replace ENV{ID_PATH} with
| Code: | | ls -l /dev/disk/by-path | grep sr0 |
This will create cdrom, cdrw, dvd, dvdrw symlinks for /dev/sr0. |

Thanks for that !
And that'll probably solve my problem with the DVD drive : it's mounter by the volume name (which is different from one disc to another) instead of being mounted with some standard id.
I'll try that and keep in touch for the results here.

ls -l /dev/disk/by-path | grep sr (Actually, I got two optical drives) :
| Quote: |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 nov. 5 20:23 pci-0000:04:07.0-scsi-0:0:0:0 -> ../../sr0

My /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules contains the following :
| Quote: |

Should I change this file into this? :
| Quote: |
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:04:07.0-scsi-0:0:0:0", SYMLINK+="cdrom", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:04:07.0-scsi-0:0:0:0", SYMLINK+="cdrw", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:04:07.0-scsi-0:0:0:0", SYMLINK+="dvd", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:04:07.0-scsi-0:0:0:0", SYMLINK+="dvdrw", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:04:07.0-scsi-0:0:1:0", SYMLINK+="cdrom1", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:04:07.0-scsi-0:0:1:0", SYMLINK+="cdrw1", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:04:07.0-scsi-0:0:1:0", SYMLINK+="dvd1", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:04:07.0-scsi-0:0:1:0", SYMLINK+="dvdrw1", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
|
Or, more simply, into that (the first drive is DVD, the second drive is cdrom)? :
| Quote: |
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:04:07.0-scsi-0:0:0:0", SYMLINK+="dvd", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:04:07.0-scsi-0:0:1:0", SYMLINK+="cdrom", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
|
Where can I find some documentation about HAL rules, for me to understand how this stuff works ?
Many thanks anyway for your help so far.
Cheers. |

Hallo,
I have the same issue, but not the time to go through all the documentation for the time being.
**Edit **
Although it does not seem to be so hard. I will give it a try. Thanx!
***
Could you please post the relevant config files that made it work?
Kind regards,

This currently works with only those two lines in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules
| Code: | ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:06:07.0-scsi-0:0:0:0", SYMLINK+="dvd", ENV{GENERATED}="1"
ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:06:07.0-scsi-0:0:1:0", SYMLINK+="cdrom", ENV{GENERATED}="1" |
Be warned that the pci-id ("pci-0000:06:07.0-scsi-0:0:1:0") is valid only for my system. Get yours with this command : ls -l /dev/disk/by-path | grep sr
Hope it helps you avoiding reading the full doc just for two lines !

Thank you! It works great!
Kind regards,

***EDIT***
I also found those rules that work as well:

SUBSYSTEM=="block", KERNEL=="sr0", SYMLINK+="dvd", GROUP="cdrom", ENV{GENERATED}="1" |
