I have a few problems. Getting #1 below to work would be my top priority, because I want to be able to rip my CDs into MP3 format very easily. (I could not get abcde to work, and I would much prefer to use konqueror directly.) 1) I am using KDE 3.2.2. I cannot get Audio CD Browser working. I installed the latest kdeaddons3-sound.rpm, kdemultimedia3-extra.rpm, kdemultimedia3-sound.rpm, and kdemultimedia3-video.rpm files today from the SuSE download site if this matters. 2) Regarding my CD-ROM, k3b v0.11 can copy a data CD just fine, but cannot copy an audio CD. It complains about not being able to open /dev/sr0 (but reads just fine from sr0 when worrying about a data file). I cannot mound an audio CD, but can mount a data CD. I managed to read an audio CD successfully using xcdroast, but would prefer to use k3b for everything if I can get it working. If I do an "eject sr0" it ejects a CD-ROM just fine. 3) I also have a CD-RW that can do things like burn mp3s from k3b. However, it cannot mount even a simple audio CD from KDE. I think maybe my setup has been a bit mangled by k3b_setup. As root, f I do an "eject /dev/hdc" it says "eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument" Here is a partial listing of my /dev directory:
