I've just finished installing SUSE 9.3 on my M70. Everything seems to have gone perfectly well except for the couple of errors that cjcox noted in his SUSE install write up. The problem I'm having (the same encountered by cjcox) is that the CD/DVD drive shows up, but it's not functional.
I'm trying to follow the fix on cjcox's guide, but whenever I try to use KWrite to change the line storage.media_check_enabled to "true" in the storage-policy.fdi file in /usr/share/hal/fdi/90defaultpolicy, I get an error message saying that I don't have write access to the file.
Unfortunately cjcox's guide doesn't get into the details of editing the values, and since I'm a complete and total n00b at all things linux, I really have no idea what to do. If anyone could help me out, I'd really appreciate it. Also, has anyone else had this CD/DVD issue with the M70 and SUSE 9.3? Everything else has worked fine, just this one last problem. Anyway, thanks in advance for you advice.
