Linux doesn't seem to autoload CD/DVDs when I insert them into the drive. The optical disk icon disappears and I have to mount it manually, is there a way around this?

fstab:
Code:


# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# noatime turns off atimes for increased performance (atimes normally aren't
# needed; notail increases performance of ReiserFS (at the expense of storage
# efficiency).  It's safe to drop the noatime options if you want and to
# switch between notail / tail freely.
#
# The root filesystem should have a pass number of either 0 or 1.
# All other filesystems should have a pass number of 0 or greater than 1.
#
# See the manpage fstab(5) for more information.
#

# <fs>                  <mountpoint>    <type>          <opts>          <dump/pass>

# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
/dev/sda5               /boot           ext3            noauto,noatime  1 2
/dev/sda7               /               ext4            noatime         0 1
/dev/sda6               none            swap            sw              0 0
/dev/cdrom              /mnt/cdrom      auto            noauto,user     0 0
#/dev/fd0               /mnt/floppy     auto            noauto          0 0

# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will
#  use almost no memory if not populated with files)
shm                     /dev/shm        tmpfs           nodev,nosuid,noexec     0 0

Thanks, that worked... I thought I had tried that already.
