What you describe sounds like a udev problem. It is udev that is
responsible for creating the devices.
Thanks for answering.
udev is responsible for creating, but hal is responsible for
hotplugging.... So....
I tried to use debugging with hal, but I did not see anything suspect (I
can be wrong, because I am not an expert...)
I tried to debug udev too, but this is almost impossible: logs go on
console at boot time, and are unreadable....
I have no brilliant solution but
it sounds like for some reason udev decides that those /dev files are
not needed when confronted with an inserted. Now one question. Are you
inserting data CDs or music or video CDs? Only data CDs are mounted. Are
you somehow trying to mount a music CD?
No, I don't try to mount music CD, video DVD are automatically mounted
and it is during this phase that the links are erased.
