When I got my cd burner, I started using the ide-scsi module to access it and the cdrom drive. This has worked well, until today. I received two new audio cds in the mail. I put one in each drive and played them through with xmms. No problem there. I then tried to rip the cds using cdparanoia like I have done with my other cds. However, cdparanoia reports the following : $ cdparanoia -B /dev/cdrom exists but isn't accessible. By default, cdparanoia stops searching for an accessible drive here. Consider using -sv to force a more complete autosense of the machine. More information about /dev/cdrom: Checking /dev/cdrom for cdrom... Testing /dev/cdrom for cooked ioctl() interface /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd is not a cooked ioctl CDROM. Testing /dev/cdrom for SCSI interface No generic SCSI device found to match CDROM device /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd Using '-sv' as suggested simply produces more of the same output, but for each device tried. Explicitly specifying the device yields the same output. When I closed every app using the cd drives, removed the 'sr_mod' and 'ide-scsi' modules and inserted 'ide-cd' then I was able to rip the cds (only from the cdrom, not the cdrw for some reason), however this workaround is not an ideal solution. Is cdparanoia not compatible with ide-scsi for some reason? (why?) What is a good solution? (IOW, what do you do, or what do you suggest?) TIA, -D -- If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. But when he asks he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. James 1:5-6 http://dman13.dyndns.org/~dman/
