Nothing new at all - confirmed by tail -f. 'messages' shows

which seems to tie in with the timestamp. Nothing in either
addressing /dev/hdd or anything else recognisably connected.
Procedure may be relevant:
I start xine and insert disk. I wait for automount to offer options and
select 'Do nothing'. Only after that do I hit the DVD button in xine. I
have noticed that the xine screen header shows the 'no mrl' message long
before I get to that - in fact it appears to be immediate. Does this suggest
anything?
