Hi. Im trying to stop KDE from automounting (and opening in Konqueror) the CDROM drive(s). I cant find the setting to do this. Do i need to change fstab, or is there a KDE setting ive missed?

Thanks

it's handled in /etc/fstab

there will be a line for your CD-ROM that uses automount. change it to a normal CD-ROM entry like this:

/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/dvdrom iso9660 unhide,user,noauto,ro 0 0 (obviously this will need to be modified to suit your system)

Im not sure what to change. My CDROM fstab entries are:

/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0

On Red Hat 9, if you go into ~/.kde/Autostart there should be a file called Autorun.desktop. If you rename/remove it, it will stop automounting of the cdrom drives.
