Hi,

Since I have installed kernel amd64 I have nomore
cdrom and sr0 in /dev
Here is my emerge --info:

Hi everybody,

I encounter the same problem with x86 system (Everything is ok on my
second x86_64 PC).
I didn't change anything in kernel configuration and recently,
/dev/cdrom and /dev/sr0 disappeared.
So, i can't mount any cdrom, but surprisingly, i can burn or erase a RW
dvdrom with Brasero...
dmesg does not show any error message before or after inserting cdrom or
dvdrom.

# dmesg | grep cdrom
#cdrom: Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20

# dmesg | grep sr0
#


I don't use hal (-hal in make.conf)


My kernel configuration :

# SCSI device support
CONFIG_SCSI_MOD=y
CONFIG_SCSI=y
CONFIG_SCSI_DMA=y
CONFIG_SCSI_TGT=y
CONFIG_SCSI_NETLINK=y
CONFIG_SCSI_PROC_FS=y
# SCSI support type (disk, tape, CD-ROM)
# CONFIG_SCSI_ENCLOSURE is not set
CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y
CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y
CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING=y
# CONFIG_SCSI_SCAN_ASYNC is not set
CONFIG_SCSI_WAIT_SCAN=m
# SCSI Transports
CONFIG_SCSI_SPI_ATTRS=m
CONFIG_SCSI_FC_ATTRS=m
# CONFIG_SCSI_FC_TGT_ATTRS is not set
CONFIG_SCSI_ISCSI_ATTRS=m
# CONFIG_SCSI_SAS_ATTRS is not set
# CONFIG_SCSI_SAS_LIBSAS is not set

CONFIG_SCSI_LOWLEVEL=y



# CD-ROM/DVD Filesystems
#
CONFIG_ISO9660_FS=y

Thank you very much for your help,

Best regards

Some info : when i run udevadm monitor --kernel, nothing happens when
inserting cdrom.
# udevadm monitor --kernel
monitor will print the received events for:
KERNEL - the kernel uevent

Thank you Volker for your answer.

dmesg | grep cdrom and grep sr0 didn't give any answer

Here is my scsi config in the kernel:

< > RAID Transport Class

-*- SCSI device support

< > SCSI target support

[*] legacy /proc/scsi/ support

     *** SCSI support type (disk, tape, CD-ROM)***

I hope it will help you...and me   :-)

complete dmesg would be nice nonetheless.

try that as module and reload it - what happens?

But in dmesg there are 1106 lines!
Would you like I send all or only a part of them?

Nothing, bad luck!
Neither no cdrom nor sr0 in /dev

No, it isn't.

That's a strange looking "SCSI support type" section. Here's mine, for
reference:

#
# SCSI support type (disk, tape, CD-ROM)
#
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=y
CONFIG_CHR_DEV_ST=y
# CONFIG_CHR_DEV_OSST is not setabsense
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR=y
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR_VENDOR is not set
CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG=y
# CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SCH is not set
CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y
CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y
# CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING is not set
# CONFIG_SCSI_SCAN_ASYNC is not set
CONFIG_SCSI_WAIT_SCAN=m

You need CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR for /dev/sr* to work, so its absence in
your config is rather suspicious.

Because threre are many lines (1106)
you can get it at this adress:

Hi Mike,

I saw that CONFIG_IDE (DEPRECATED) was set to yes ; so the disk names
were hda1, hda2, hdb, hdc instead of sda1, etc...
I set CONFIG_IDE to no and use CONFIG_ATA.
Now sda1, sda2 and ...sr0 are back and everything works fine !

Thank you for your help

Hi Volker,

I tried again and I hope you'llhave now the complete dmesg.
Here is the adress:

A friend found how to solve the problem.
He changed some settings in Device Drivers,
specially in Serial ATA and Paralell ATA drivers,
and somewhere else.
Now I have cdrom and sr0 in /dev and the player works.

Thank you for your help.
