Hmmm. Check with YaST software installation. The installed version of
hotplug should be 0.44-32.22 and not 0.44-32. If you've got the wrong 
version, you can always try downloading from

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/9.1/rpm/noarch/hotplug-0.44-32.22.noarch.rpm

and install with
# rpm -Uvh hotplug-0.44-32.22.noarch.rpm

I decided to test all of this, just to see. The awkward bit is getting 
/etc/fstab right. The relevant lines for me are these
#/dev/cdrecorder      /media/cdrecorder    subfs 
fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,iocharset=utf8 0 0
#/dev/dvd             /media/dvd           subfs 
fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,iocharset=utf8 0 0
#/dev/fd0             /media/floppy        subfs 
fs=floppyfss,procuid,nodev,nosuid,sync 0 0
#/dev/sda1            /media/muvo          subfs 
fs=floppyfss,user,procuid,nodev,nosuid,sync 0 0
/dev/cdrecorder      /media/cdrecorder    auto       ro,noauto,user,exec 
   0 0
/dev/cdrom           /media/cdrom         auto       ro,noauto,user,exec 
   0 0
/dev/dvd             /media/dvd           auto       ro,noauto,user,exec 
   0 0
/dev/fd0             /media/floppy        auto       noauto,user,sync 
    0 0
/dev/sda1            /media/muvo          auto 
noauto,user,exec,sync 0 0
(that's 8 lines, the first four are just the commented out old ones).

I did all that, rebooted (just to make sure and because I'm too lazy to 
check everything I might need without rebooting).

I did four times on my KDE desktop the following -
Right click=>Create New=>Device=>CD-ROM DEVICE
- once each for the DVD, CD-Recorder, Floppy and Muvo.

There are some nice new icons in 9.1!

It all works very well, dare I say it, better than submount. I can mount 
DVDs and CDs instantly, play music CDs, play DVD films (still with 5.1 
sound :-) ). I haven't checked the floppy or checked that the camera 
still works.

I hope that helps.
