Hi All
Hope everyone is well. I have a X201 and have installed a docking station. Ubuntu recognises most elements of the station but has not picked up the dvd drive. Is there a command I can run to get Ubuntu to look for devices please? Or is there a different Linux distro that might be better at recognising the hardware please? 

Thanks


Just ran:

sudo lshw -C disk

Can anybody clue me as to what to do next please? Thanks

If "mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom" works from within terminal, then it's probably just a matter of editing your /etc/fstab?

Just tried:
sudo mkdir /mnt/cdrom
richard@richard-ThinkPad-X201:~$ sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
mount: /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error

       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail or so.

dmesg returns a list of stuff with this at the bottom:

[26676.325502] sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0]
[26676.325508] Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE

It is a dvd in the slot drive. Any ideas please?
