It seems that there are a lot of people that have had it and most of the forum threads I looked at seemed to have either some suggestions or possibly answers. Yes, I have googled for much of today. There are a lot of responses, but I tried to stick to one where it was related to gentoo. Like I said, there is a symlink that links cdrom to sr0. One of the things I found when I googled said that they made a symlink to sr0 from cdrom. That didn't make sense to me so. I didn't try it. Another post suggested that there was a problem with phonon. Hence, I emerge an upgrade (albeit unstable) to phonon-gstreamer. In honesty, one thing I didn't try was writing a udev rule that was suggested. Call me stubborn, but I've never had to write a rule to get an audio CD to play before so, I will only do that as a last resort. I've tried to stay away from posts that were back in 2003 and 2004 'cause they may not be relevant now. The line in my fstab is: /dev/cdrom/mnt/cdromautonoauto,user0 0 To listen to audio CDs you should *not* mount the CD. Therefore the above entry is not required.

One of the things I found when I googled said that they made a symlink to sr0 from cdrom. That didn't make sense to me so. I didn't try it. Another post suggested that there was a problem with phonon. Hence, I emerge an upgrade (albeit unstable) to phonon-gstreamer.

Call me stubborn, but I've never had to write a rule to get an audio CD to play before so, I will only do that as a last resort.

On Thu, 2011-10-20 at 07:37 +0530, Nilesh Govindarajan wrote: [...] BTW, which overlays did you use? I'll just interject once again. When you use many overlays, there is a feeling of a exponential increase in complexity/instability. The thing is when you use official tree, all the Gentoo devs are (supposed to) play in the same sandbox. This means the behaviors of different packages and their dependencies and interactions with each other are somewhat predictable, and when problems occur, they are easier to debug and solve because everyone's playing in the same sandbox. When you are mixing differing packages from differing repos (overlays), then not everyone is on the same page. The developers in overlay A may not be aware of what's going on in overlay B as they are usually only concerned about their own sandboxes (and the official repo). This can makes debugging much more complex and, if it's an interaction between different overlays, usually it's going to be the user who is going to have to figure it out, not the developers. The if you add live ebuilds into the mix, you are adding even more sandboxes, and the upstream repos are even more unpredictable. So one minute you can have a perfectly harmonious system, and the next you are dealing with a bunch of unstable isotopes. This is not to say you can't/shouldn't do these things. After all this is Gentoo, and one of the nice things about Gentoo is that we *do* have this power. But my point is with great power comes great responsibility. And sometimes that means when it breaks, *you* get to pick up the pieces. -a

Can you try something that is not related to KDE like VLC (might need USE=cdda)? 2. What use flags has media-libs/phonon enabled? 3. Which backend for phonon is activated (system settings - multimedia)? Regards, Florian Philipp cdda is one of my USE flags. Phonon has gstreamer and xine enabled as USE flags. No option for cdda when I type emerge -av phonon, but like I said, that is one of my USE flags. Phonon current backend is gstreamer. Kaffeine works with this. It is only kscd that is not working.

I've tried with kscd and Kaffeine. When I try to play an audio CD in kaffeine, I get an alert box that says: Cannot find input plgin for MRL cdda:// I can now play an audio CD in kaffeine. I have no idea what I did! I did add a couple of packages and because of this changed some use flags and updated my system with --newuse, but that's all I did. However, I still cannot play a CD in kscd. Hi Colleen, I didn't find it in this thread yet, but I am wondering if you have the CD-drive connected to the soundcard or not. Some applications will rip and play the cdda-tracks directly from the CD. Others will simply tell the CD-drive to play an audio-cd and have the cd-drive do the decoding. In the latter case, the audio-signal goes over a little cable from the cd-drive to the soundcard. I assume that it is connected because I could play an audio file (ogg) from my hard drive. Also, now I can play CD's using kaffeine, just not kscd. I can rip them using asunder. Regards, Colleen -- Registered Linux User #411143 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org

So, I don't know for sure that I can play a CD either. This is one bad thing about a Cooler Master HAF-932 case. It needs longer cables and I don't have one. Checked this and my output permission-wise looks exactly the same as yours. :-) Colleen -- Registered Linux User #411143 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org

Therefore the above entry is not required. Since you are trying to use KDE apps to play CDs you ought to check that you have installed: kde-base/kdemultimedia-meta kde-base/kdemultimedia-kioslaves If you're using a good chunk of kde, emerge kde-base/kde-meta. Makes kde upgrades simpler, and less pollution in the world file. To be honest, I don't want meta anything, bur from what I understand, sets don't come into play until 4.7 and that isn't stable yet. I didn't want to install unstable KDE. Regards, Colleen Using kde-meta doesn't have to pull in anything unstable. The reason for kde-meta is for those who want to install everything KDE and get it all in one command. I use kde-meta here since KDE is my primary desktop and I wanted to get the whole she bag, pardon the pun. lol If you don't use unmask/keywords, then emerging kde-meta will just install the things you have not installed yet. It could be that a package that is needed is not yet installed. Then again, maybe something is muted. ^_^ Maybe this will explain it better: root@fireball / # eix kde-meta [I] kde-base/kde-meta Available versions: (4) 4.6.3 4.6.5 (~)4.7.1 (~)4.7.2{tbz2} {accessibility aqua kdeprefix nls oldpim sdk semantic-desktop} Installed versions: 4.7.2(4){tbz2}(03:44:51 AM 10/07/2011)(nls semantic-desktop -accessibility -aqua -oldpim -sdk) Homepage:http://www.kde.org/ Description: KDE - merge this to pull in all split kde-base/* packages root@fireball / # That make sense? Cents? Whichever. lol Ma'am. No hat tonight. Dale :-) :-)

I have noticed recently that when I upgrade KDE, at least one config file sort of burps on me and I have to give it a clean start. Last time was Kpat. I dunno. I can't find one on here. I guess I haven't used it for it to create one. It's usually in /home/user/.kde4/share/config. I'm not certain on the name tho. Ma'am. Dale :-) :-)
