I have the same problems of Anonymous :( and don’t know how to revert it.

I can’t not mount more than one CD by time, if I need to mount another I must reboot my computer, I can’t remember if it’s the same option Anonymous disable I just can remember it was about auto mounting CDs.

Can you please help me to revert the efects? Should remove powertop helps?

:)
