But I dont know where to go to reconfigure the cdrom. I started googling the model of the cdrom and suse a few days ago and while the suse site says that my particular model is not supported the site also has not been updated in that regard for sometime I would think AND the other models listed from pioneer are almost exaclty like mine. Though almost doesnt always cut it I still say its a config problem and any thoughts on where I can change some settings for my cdrom would be nice because I cant find a dman thing on google that helps out me in this particular situation.
