Hi, This is ot I know, but..., I'm having problems ripping some audio, it's so damn slow!!! The last time I did this (I think it was under windows) I could at least rip at 8X (SCSI), now it's at 1,5X maximum (cdparanoia with some switches). I have tested with SCSI and 3 different IDE CDROMS, one IDE CDROM is brand new. This is very disappointing for a former musician and pro sound technician...
Testbed1 (SCSI): Adaptec 2940UW+TEAC CD-532S Testbed2 (IDE, second channel): SONY CDU4811&CDU5221, SAMSUNG SCR-3231 Is there some magical hdparm and cdparanoia switches I don't know about? Or is it the kernel? Anyone feels like sharing experiences regarding this? I would appreciate it. -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- | Oden Eriksson, Deserve-IT Networks, Jokkmokk, Sweden. | Mandrake Linux release 8.2 (Cooker) for i586 | Current uptime with kernel 2.4.13-2mdksmp: 1day | cpu0 @ 814.28 bm, fan 4530 rpm, temp +30.0�C | cpu1 @ 815.92 bm, fan 4500 rpm, temp +29�C
