A Nautilus folder will be opened automatically when inserting a CD in a drive. It is under Devices with name Audiodisk. As long as the files are accessed via Nautilus everything is fine.

The problem is that I can not find the cdrom files from the File System. This means that I can not access the cdrom files directly from applications.

This is a problem in 12.10.

I have checked all subfolders in /media, /mnt and /cdrom and didn't find the cdrom content there.

mount and df commands do not show anything related to cdrom.

In /etc/fstab there is a line

/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0

0

But the cdrom files are not in /media/cdrom0, it seems empty.

Disks show the drive as

Device /dev/sr0 (Read-Only)

When clicking a cdrom file in Nautilus and checking the properties it says under the Basic tab

Location: cdda://sr0/

How to find the mount point?
