Combo drive

Hi,

I've owned this CD-RW/DVD-ROM combo drive for a few years now, and I
used it to install FC6 on this box. Although the drive seems to be
correctly identified, the drive doesn´t read cds or dvds, let alone burn
cds. For some strange unknown reason, /dev/hdc has not been created ?
I never had any significant problems with the drive and it works in
Windows.

[ericd at tuxbox ~]$ dmesg |grep -i hdc
    ide1: BM-DMA at 0x4008-0x400f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:pio
hdc: HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4320B, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

Jan  7 11:02:52 tuxbox kernel:     ide1: BM-DMA at 0x4008-0x400f, BIOS
settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:pio
Jan  7 11:02:52 tuxbox kernel: hdc: HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4320B, ATAPI
CD/DVD-ROM drive

ls: /dev/hdc: No such file or directory

Any ideas ?

Cheers,

Eric
