Hi,

In LM8.1 w/standard KDE2.2.1: If I play an audio CD in my CD-RW drive 
with the KDE cd player (not tried other players), then I get a few 
messages in /var/log/messages saying something like "/dev/sr0 not ready 
please insert a disk" (?). After about three of these messages X locks 
up - the keyboard stops working and screen updates stop. The mouse still 
moves, but the cursor doesn't change when passing over window edges, 
etc. There is nothing else of interest in messages.

The PC is still doing stuff. Slocate fires up not long after I login and 
keeps going happily AFAIK. My only recourse seems to be the "Big Red 
Botton" (TM). Removing the CD from the drive during the reboot fixes the 
problem, but is not a very good fix for me. BTW I am using the latest 
(1541?) Nvidia drivers for X.

Any ideas what I should be looking for or at?

Thanks,
Nick.
