Thanks for the reply. Well, I will have to verify that. But I doubt he would be ready to open up the case, since the computer is still under warranty period, and opening the case will make the warranty void. So, if the CD-Drive alone can play the audio CDs, then, as a temporary solution, can the following be done (since his CD-Drive does not have any play button): ----------------------------------------- Insert an Audio CD, start 'cdplay' command, insert the headphone into the CD-Drive, and control volume using the drive's volume control. ----------------------------------------- Regards, Santanu Chatterjee [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: See the NEW Palm Tungsten T handheld.
