    I'm tapping my foot as root!

    I already added myself to the audio group awhile back, but never had to add
    myself to the cdrom group before. I added myself to the group cdrom buy that
    didn't seem to help. The device listed in gnome-cd preferences is /dev/cdrom.

    Here is the top of the dev:
