Anybody can tell me how I can use my CD-ROM IDE to play CD-AUDIO from Linux. The aplications in SuSE 5.1 only works fine with CD-ROM SCSI. Where I can find an aplications that it work with the other kinds of CD-ROM units ?.

I've had success using workman (xwindows program) and cd-console with my ide CD-ROM. When you pull up those apps is it showing the number of songs? Will it attempt to play without any sound? What kind of CD-ROM do you have? If the programs seem to be playing, try typing: cat /dev/sndstat from an xterm window. -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
