CD players not working although sound otherwise fine
I can't use any of the apps that are supposed to work on my CD drive
such as cdplay, dcd, xmcd.
Sound is otherwise fine: I can play mp3 files from the hard disk and I
can listen to CDs by pressing the buttons manually.
Attempts to use the above apps produce the following errors:
ac:~:$ cdplay
cdplay: ioctl cdrommsf
ac:~:$ dcd
ac:~:$ CDROMREADTOCENTRY[1] failed: Invalid argument
CDROMREADTOCENTRY[2] (CDROM_LEADOUT) failed: Invalid argument
CDROMPLAYMSF failed: Input/output error
Something seems to be misconfigured but what? I am added to the sound
and cdrom groups and iso9660 is enabled in the kernel. This is an ATAPI
drive and /dev/cdrom is linked to /dev/hdc:
brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 22, 0 Jul 5 2000 /dev/hdc
Any suggestions for what is wrong here?
