Hi there!

I've just upgraded to FC5 (from FC4) and there is a problem. I can't
mount CD or DVD any more. I've never experienced that problem while I
was playing with Rawhide on my test system upgrading it to FC5, or on
clean FC5 install on my second test partition, but now on my main system
I have :-/ I know that "Fedora Core 5 now uses gnome-mount, a more
efficient mechanism that replaces fstab-sync, and uses HAL to handle
mounting", but it does not work after the upgrade via install media
(which went ok BTW). I even tried to run hal deamon manually, to play
with gnome-mount and so on, but all of that didn't help. I tried to 'rpm
-V hal', but I got no output. Is there any way to solve that problem
manually? To make hal to detect my hdc and hdd devices? Any help would
be highly appreciated.

Thanks. Cheers!
