[NTLUG:Discuss] /var/log/messages question

[Jack Snodgrass]

looks similar to my logs ( they were IDE errors instead of SCSI ) 
when I first started running GNOME. Gnome was trying to 'autodetect'
the CD In the drive and since one wasn't mounted, it got IDE Errors
that filled up the log. 

I had to go into the Gnome Hardeware setting and turn off the 
autodetect/automount/autosomething for the CD Rom in order to 
turn off those errors.
