Bug Description

Ubuntu uses subdirectories under the /media directory for mounting removable drives/discs. It would be helpful if acidrip defaulted to the first /media drive (/media/cdrom0 on my system) instead of the older /mnt/dvd.

An even better solution would be to offer a selection of possible dvd drives read from hal. Obviously this would require a great deal more effort.

Acidrip currently uses the udev /dev/dvd symlink, which works fine for now. I agree that a HAL selector box would be a sweet feature though, and if I knew any perl I'd start writing it :D
