Cannot play music CDs
Tried Xine, KsCD, XMMS. Nothing seems to be seeing my music cds.
KsCD is pointed at /dev/cdrom. There is sound when playing mpg etc. I have ssci emulation installed if that makes a difference. |
Make sure audio cable is connected between cdrom and sound card.
Try playing them as root, if that works then change permissions in fstab for cdrom. |
you say you are using scsi emulation. check your /etc/fstab, does the entries there reflect that in combination with the symlinks in your /dev.
|
Regarding cables; I can play CDS from knoppix or Windows.
Regarding fstab I have no problem mounting cds Here are the relevant lines. /dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0 /dev/sr1 /mnt/cdrw iso9660 user,rw 0 0 In fact I have kscd pointing at /dev/sr0 not cdrom as I wrote before. |
Oh, and I have tried unsuccessfully as root

Did you try ln -s /dev/sr0 /dev/cdrom ? |
No error message. Clicking play just shows 00.00 on the timer. Same if from the console
CDDB show 'No disc' ln -s /dev/sr0 /dev/cdrom does not help |
Just to make sure, you have SCSI CDrom not IDE ?
|
do you have correct permissions on /dev/sr0?
|
Make sure you're in the CDROM group in /etc/group
|
I have ssci emulation as advised in the xcdroast faq
ine for /etc/modules.conf options ide-cd ignore='hdc hdd' (This tells the IDE-driver to ignore the two devices you want to use within X-CD-Roast) - Line for /etc/lilo.conf (add anywhere before any "image=" lines) append="hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi" (Kernel 2.2.x and most 2.4.x) or append="hdc=scsi hdd=scsi" (Kernel 2.4.x only, if the above line does not work |
Just discovered that I can listen to music CDs from gnome.
My problem is in KDE 3.2.3 ( a recent swaret upgrade) |
This is really odd. It is now working in kde. And the only thing I did different was try it out in gnome!
|
Further proof that Bob must use Gnome.
|
strangely.. i can't play it in gnome(din tried kde n other coz din install them)! it says drive error... no way, they play well in windows, my hi-fi..... besides, i've no prb at all to mount other data disc
