actually i tried. no go. this is not a grip problem, nor is it an xmms or xmcd
problem. this is something else... when i ran grip, i got absolutely no sound!
but, i got this in the log:

Nov 11 23:00:14 homeland kernel: cdrom: entering CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS
Nov 11 23:00:45 homeland last message repeated 31 times
Nov 11 23:00:55 homeland last message repeated 10 times

Nov 11 23:02:02 homeland kernel: cdrom: entering CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS
Nov 11 23:02:14 homeland last message repeated 12 times

then i kill grip...

Nov 11 23:02:14 homeland kernel: cdrom: entering cdrom_release
Nov 11 23:02:14 homeland kernel: cdrom: Use count for "/dev/hdc" now zero
Nov 11 23:02:14 homeland kernel: cdrom: Unlocking door!

all the other utils i mentioned have similar o/p... except for the fact that
xmms sometimes does let me listen to 1st track before it ejects the caddy.
whenever i click the play or stop buttons (xmms), the caddy ejects... in grip,
when i kill grip, the caddy ejects !!??!!

this is definitely not a grip/xmms/whatever util problem, its (i suspect)
either a kernel module problem or a (kernel) config problem.

What could be the problem ? He is on Woody with 2.4.18 kernel.


Peace
