Can you check if gnome-cd works with CDDB?
Well, gnome-cd works sometimes, but for most CDs (or 'reinsertions') it does not work, as well as goobox. I did some investigation and found out the following things: 1. Grip works best as to querying CDDB. Some CDs are not recognized immediately, but when I wait some seconds and keep pressing the "query CDDB" button I'm able to "persuade" it to work. (unfortunately there is no such button in goobox nor in gnome-cd) 2. gnome-cd and goobox mostly do not work, but sometimes they do. It's really weird... I just did the following. a) Remove the directories ~/.cddb and ~/.cddbslave b) Insert a CD (Moloko - "Things to Make and Do") and start goobox -> it does not recognize it. c) Start gnome-cd -> it does not recognize it. d) Start Grip -> it does not recognize the CD until I press the "CDDB query" button. (Grip now saves the received information in a file under ~/.cddb; ~/.cddbslave is still empty) e) Start goobox again -> et viola, suddenly goobox knows my CD! Now, there is also an appropriate file in ~/.cddbslave, but it's not a copy of the one in ~/.cddb. The commented-out headers of the files differ, the one saying it was created by Grip 3.20, the other one by CDDBSlave2 2.8.0, and so on. Now, also gnome-cd recognizes the disc correctly. What is going on? Both Grip and cddb-slave2 are configured to query the same CDDB server, namely freedb.freedb.org 3. OK, I try another CD: Beastie Boys - "Check your Head" a) Neither gnome-cd nor goobox do recognize it. b) Grip does. c) Now, gnome-cd also recognizes it, but this time... d) goobox doesn't... *sigh* Until now I was believing, computers were deterministic ^^ I not even know, against which package to file a bug. Any help is much appreciated! Best regards Adalbert -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
