Hello, Thank you for the mail,.....
The drive works fine. I'm looking for a way to detect when the CD is inserted into the drive so I could "automatically" mount it (or play it or whatever....)
I would like to get the (any) events the cdrom might send. Do you know where I could look specifically? Or is the VFS ONLY triggered manually? (mount/unmount)?
