By default Audio CD (aka CDDA) do not get "detected" by Linux, and I belive most OSs behave this way by default
However if you put the disc in the drive and open your favorite audio/cd player app it should find them.
I notice on your other system, which is running KDE, you say it detects them. That is because the people at KDE have put some majic in that "detects" them. It then provides you with some sort of interface to save them as mp3(s) etc.

Many thanks to you for this useful information !
Let me try and see if the audio/cd player detects them.
I've never used Banshee so i can't give exact directions. But it would seem it's converting them to mp3 format.
Have a look around the menus and options in banshee, there you should find something about the encoder options.
Also go to their website and i'm sure you will find some documentation describing how to do it.
Another also, if your having problems with banshee and want to ask specific questions about it then i suggest you start a new thread. As other people will be able to see your new questions easier

Thanks for replying!
I didn't ask any question regarding banshee player. I just wanted to know how to copy the songs from the Audio CD to my harddisk without compressing them ..
