Description Alexandr Bezenkov 2011-11-26 15:56:15 CET
Description of problem:
cdemu daemon is not registered as service and not visible in MCC Services window, so it cannot be enabled for autostart. Manual start of daemon through console gives:
[realgecko@localhost]$ cdemu load 0 some.iso

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.3.0


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install cdemu-daemon package version 1.3.0
2.Go to MCC - System - Services
3.See that there is no cdemud in list

I suspect cdemu is not working at all, cause in MDV 2010 installation of this package added a virtual cd/dvd drive in control center`s  local disks tab. In Magia there`s nothing like that avilable.

Hi, thanks for reporting this bug.

Comment 2 Anssi Hannula 2011-11-27 00:15:04 CET
CDemu daemon is configured as a dbus service which is automatically started when needed, hence it doesn't appear in the SysV services list.

The other issue is a dkms-vhba bug, can you open a separate report about it?
Comment 3 Alexandr Bezenkov 2011-11-27 08:48:50 CET
Sure, I will open separate report right now.
Will cdemud start automatically if I launch kde-cdemu(graphical front end for daemon)?
By the way kde-cdemu package is absent in repos, I`ve already submitted a bug for it :)
Comment 4 Anssi Hannula 2011-11-27 09:57:00 CET
Sorry for being unclear. By "other issue" I actually meant the kernel oops which happens when you load an ISO image.

And yes, cdemud should start automatically when any frontend tries to use its services.
Comment 5 Alexandr Bezenkov 2011-11-27 12:58:50 CET
Created bug report about kernel messages.
Comment 6 Alexandr Bezenkov 2011-11-27 15:23:48 CET
I`ve installed kde-cdemu-manager-0.3-2mdv2010.0.i586.rpm. Everything is fine except that cdemu daemon is not started while kde-cdemu is started. You have to start cdemu manually from command line, only after that kde-cdemu is able to contact with daemon.
In MDV 2010 cdemu-daemon was available as system service and you could start or stop it through MCC and so it also was available for autostart with system...
Comment 7 Alexandr Bezenkov 2011-11-27 15:25:04 CET
Also mounted image is not available for mount in device notifier...

Comment 9 Anssi Hannula 2011-12-05 23:19:33 CET
The bug is in kde-cdemu-manager. It should simply try to connect to the cdemu-daemon (so that dbus will start it) instead of checking if it is already running.

Closing as WONTFIX as CDEmu will not be readded as a normal service.

Discussion regarding kde-cdemu-manager and including it shall continue in bug #3449.
