As far as I remember the libcdaudio.so library/plugin also supports Digital Audio Extraction (if your drive supports DAE, that is). Using xmms/libaudiocd.so it should be possible to play CD's without the audio cable. I think that I actually did that once, but I can't verify this, as all my current systems are fitted with the audio cable. Jan -- ** Do NOT use the reply-to address.
