The gnome-cd app just says "Drive Error".
It works fine when I boot with my 2.4.26 kernel...ide-scsi and such...
ide-scsi is deprecated in 2.6, and the CD drives should use the ide-cd
driver now (check your kernel config in the ATA/... section for IDE CD
support). Can you mount data CDs?
Nope, couldn't find the cd device anymore....I tried to load the ide-cd
module earlier today and it threw and error....
but now of course it loads fine and I have all sorts of CD's available
in /dev
What did you change that it's running now?
modprobe ide-cd
and I can mount and read a CD, still can't play one though....tried
gnome-cd and alsaplayer
Hmmm... I don't remember exactly how those CD playing utilities are working,
but I guess they need to access the raw disk device (because CDDA-compliant
CDs don't have any form of partition table)... /dev/hdc and /dev/hdd (which
normally are your CD drives, if you have connected them to the secondary
IDE bus) are mode 660 root:cdrom here - try adding yourself to the group
cdrom or playing CDs as root... does that work?
If it doesn't, please elaborate a bit on the errors you're getting from
gnome-cd and alsaplayer...
I'm tapping my foot as root!
I already added myself to the audio group awhile back, but never had to add
myself to the cdrom group before. I added myself to the group cdrom buy that
didn't seem to help. The device listed in gnome-cd preferences is /dev/cdrom.
Here is the top of the dev:

Thank you - it was short, but has to be enough.
