cdrom failure in ubuntu gusty with version 1.5

Post by witkey »

cdrom works well in ubuntu gusty. but there is not any '/dev/cdrom' item in the cdrom select list, so i can't assign the cdrom device to guest machine.

witkey: is your CD device readable and writable to your user? VirtualBox 1.5.0 should look for the real device node, say /dev/sr0 or whatever it is.
