    Re: Can't see content of DVD (That worked in windows)

    I didn't really get what to replace the red with
    That's just to specify the dvd drive for a command so it can locate it.

    the 'normal' is for your dvd drive, /dev/scd0
    if you had 2 drives then the other one would be /dev/scd1

    But normal isn't 'all the time'

    If you wanted to see the 'device locations' of your drives run this in a terminal, it will show most of the 'names' that point to each drive.


    Code:
    sudo lshw -C disk

    I solved it!

    I solved it!

    all this time I was thinking the problem lay on the DVD permissions, But I realized that maybe it had something to do with the hard drive writing permissions, so I tried to change that, which it didn't work, so I said, what if a open two nautilus folders as root, one with the DVD and the other with the desktop, and it worked!! The answer was so simple!!

    I just wish I could have root privileges in my day to day life
