I have a Mitsumi FX400, a 2-year-old IDE CD-ROM, my sytem is 2.2-970225-GAMMA. The kernel has the options ATAPI and ATAPI_STATIC. xcdplayer -device /dev/wcd0c works, but not perfect (no volume control). I couldn't try xcd, since I don't have Tcl/Tk installed (yet :-) ). The program that works best is /usr/sbin/cdcontrol (yep, it's no extra port). It's a textmode program though :P . Call it with "cdcontrol -f /dev/wcd0". Does this program work on your system? What are the permissions for /dev/wcd* ? For testing purposes you could set them to 666. Bye, Philipp
