When I load a blank cd into the optical drive on my CentOS-6.7
workstation I am not getting any window or visible mount action on my
Gnome desktop. Formerly, when I mounted a writeable media in this
drive on this host I would see a nautilus style file browser window
open with inducements to add files.
When I visit /mnt I see nothing:
ll /mnt
total 0
My fstab does not seem to have much to say either:
cat /etc/fstab

The hardware seems to be there:

Now, I have not played with any of this stuff in quite some time and I
used it late last year to cut CentOS-7 ISOs. So my question is: What
has changed to cause this behaviour? Any ideas?
