Hi Bret, hey NP. Appreciate the help. The ide-cd entry worked! Mplayer is smooth as silk. When I ran "lsmod |grep cd", received exactly the same output:
ide-cd 30048 0 (autoclean) cdrom 31968 0 (autoclean) [ide-cd] I would like to understand the second line a bit better and the relationship between cdrom and [ide-cd] Is this an expression of some form of link between the two? I start mplyaer using /dev/cdrom rather than ide-cd which is not recognized. As well, when I look at a listing of Block Devices using KDE Control Module, I see listed /dev/cdrom .. /mnt/cdrom No where do I see reference to ide-cd other than in the module.conf discussion. Just trying to get my head around this one :-) Cheers- Kirby -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Bret Hughes Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2003 5:47 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: hdparm - exist?
