Bug Description
Binary package hint: udev
Running Kubuntu Hardy Beta on x86. I only have a single DVD/CD device (Sony CD-RW / DVD).
I use my computer to watch movies. The initial beta worked fine, but after running synaptic a few times over the last few weeks the following problem has shown up.
If I boot the computer with a DVD in the drive it will create /dev/dvd correctly. However, if I eject the DVD and re-insert it or a new DVD the system will create /dev/dvd1 and kaffeine, etc... won't play as they can't find the device. Annoyingly however Kaffeine prompts to install libdvdcss which seems wierd??? But that's a different matter. The /dev/dvd device is removed completely.
Anyways, my /etc/udev/

I can fix the situation by changing the cdrom1,cdrw1,dvd1 to just cdrom,cdrw,dvd and /etc/init.d/udev restart
It lists this file as being auto-generated by 75-persistent-
Let me know what you need.
Created a separate bug #250232 to record the incorrect comment about 75-persistent- cd-generator. rules
