Can't play audio CDs
I have an ATAPI CD-ROM drive (actually a Creative Dxr2 DVD drive), which I
can't get to play audio CDs under debian.
I am new to debian, but have a fair amount of experience wi/ Redhat. I am
currently migrating my system from redhat to debian, dual-booting so I can
keep the useable rh system around until I get everything working under debian.
Playing of audio cds works fine under redhat (using kscd), but under debian
(unstable, with either the 2.2 idepci kernel or a custom 2.4.5 kernel), I get
no sound.
My drive is showing up as /dev/hdc. kscd tries to use /dev/cdrom, and when I
change that in the configuration, it crashes. grip will use /dev/hdc, and
gets a track listing, but when it plays there is no sound.
Under redhat my drive showed up as /dev/cdrom. I'm not sure if this is
significant.
Since I don't own a cd player, I can't switch over to debian until I get this
working. Any suggestions?
TIA,
Nathan
