Actually its my fault. I did not explain properly. With xmms-cdread you have to put the device name in the CDRead configuration (e.g. /dev/hdc or /dev/scd0 ) Then to play the CD you right click on xmms, select Play File, then in the dialogue box you enter the device name (e.g. /dev/scd0 ) It will not work if you select the mount point (e.g. /mnt/cdrom ) derek -- ---------------------------------- www.jennings.homelinux.net
