Re: [gentoo-user] Playing Audio and DVD cds!!!
Hello Daniel, He mentioned an error that happens when he click the Gnome (or KDE, can't remember) icon at the desktop. Not something he typed... Thanks for pointing that out! Try simply NOT USING the icon, and using an application direcly. OK, I have tryed this with mplayer, xine, cd player With cd player and mplayer I am unable to get the cd to play but it does show me the metadata for the cd (audio) With xine I can play the cd (audio) Emerge mplayer and: I have emerged mplayer mplayer dvd:// what is this and where do I do this? for example. Try XMMS to play audio CDs. Have you tried just playing them with the app? See above for this response Or are you still wanting them to be played automagically? Rigtht now I don't care if there play auto or not but at a time I would like this. I guess your problem is configuration of the WM and maybe some dependency or whatever linked to the way the WM deals with the icons on the desktop. I am using Gnome that portage has of latest one I think, and x11 how do I do this and so on I am a very new users that had done this setup now over 5 times as I run in to one issue or entother? You DO NOT MOUNT audio CDs, that would probably return an error and/or block the device for direct reading (in the case of a DVD). I tryed this as a test to see if that was the issue and it did not help so I rebooted after it Sincerely, Christopher -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I have never had difficulty getting grub to play with Windows in the past, but that was always with PATA hardware. I have tried editing the grub configuration at boot time to see if grub doesn't like my drive number or something. I used the TAB autocompletion feature which lists three disks (hd0, hd1, and hd2). The former two are definitely my raid array based on the number of partitions they contain. The latter has only one partition (according to grub's TAB autocompletion) which is as it should be given that it is obviously the Windows disk. I'm at a loss here.

If not, you have to patch kernel first to get your sata-drive recognised... Anyway, for installation I had to use p-ata disk (this was detected by livecd-kernel), install linux on it, patch kernel, then sata-disk was recognised, and finally install on sata disk... BTW, try to switch your sata to ahci. Sometimes helps. But in my case it was definitely not supported southbridge... Jarry -- Analog-/ISDN-Nutzer sparen mit GMX SmartSurfer bis zu 70%!
