Dear folks
I cannot make /etc/devices.conf load upon reboot each time. I lose
the ability to play dvds. I copied from a freebsd page
https://cooltrainer.org/a-freebsd-desktop-howto/
, but it no longer works
I copied the file:
/etc/devfs.conf
# Allow all users to access optical media
perm /dev/acd0 0666
perm /dev/acd1 0666
perm /dev/cd0 0666
perm /dev/cd1 0666
# Allow all USB Devices to be mounted
perm /dev/da0 0666
perm /dev/da1 0666
perm /dev/da2 0666
perm /dev/da3 0666
perm /dev/da4 0666
perm /dev/da5 0666
# Misc other devices
perm /dev/pass0 0666
perm /dev/xpt0 0666
perm /dev/uscanner0 0666
perm /dev/video0 0666
perm /dev/tuner0 0666
perm /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0 0666
perm /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr 0666
perm /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 0666
and I renamed it devices.conf I also copied the ruleset
/etc/devfs.rules

I followed advice from page if I apply the advice I can access the
dvd, but upon rebooting this goes away.
Any way I can make it stick across reboots? I did not have trouble
before. Something/s have changed and it no longer works.
Best Regards,
Antonio
