Recognising a different CD drive.
I have two internal IDE CDROM drives, the first is a player connected as Primary/Slave. The second is a CDWriter connected as Secondary/Master. I want to play audio CDs from the second drive, but I can't find a way of getting SuSE/KDE to do this. It will only find the first drive and try to play from that. I have changed Control Centre/Sound/Audio IO Slave from /dev/cdrom to /dev/cdrecorder as I thought from reading the manuals, that may do it. But it doesn't. The second (Secondary/Master) drive plays audio CDs in Windows, so the audio lead is plugged up correctly. What do I have to edit to get the second drive recognised instead of the first? I am running an unmodified version 7.3 as I am setting up a new computer. Many thanks for any advice. Keith
hi guys... how could I filter which computers could get to some outsider host with IP Tables Eg. I have the following rule: iptables -A FORWARD -d 66.66.153.63 -j DROP but I want to restrict it only for some internals IP's not for all... how could I do that ? Thanks bye -ed
What kde application are you using to try and play the audio CD? Eddie ---------------- I have two internal IDE CDROM drives, the first is a player connected as Primary/Slave.

Hello Eddie. Thanks for your reply. I was using Kscd, as I have always done with my previous computer. After you had asked which KDE application I was using, I looked at Kscd and changed the CDROM device from /dev/cdrom to dev/cdrecorder. I tried changing it both when logged in as ROOT and as a USER, but every time, Kscd crashed with the error that it caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV). I have now installed XMCD and that works, so I am using it instead. I have no idea why Kscd kept crashing. Thanks for the pointer.

Hi Keith, I've been there. I eventually changed it manually in the kscd configuration file (kscdrc) located in .kde2/share/config directory. The only problem then was resetting the permissions on the device which I think I did via the permissions.local file in the /etc directory (it was on my machine at home, and I don't recall the exact details of that part but can furnish you with more info later if you wish). Anyway, glad to know that you got it going. Eddie --------------------- Hello Eddie. Thanks for your reply. I was using Kscd, as I have always done with my previous computer.
