Boyd, That would explain it then as I had the music CD in cdrom1 not cdrom......I'll try it out again in cdrom instead. Thanks, Cleve

You will get an error back from 'mount' if you try to mount them. Only ISO9660 data CD's mount. The way it works is the CD Player program reads directly from /dev/cdrom and not a mount point in your directory structure. In which case Gnome might not be looking at /dev/cdrom it might be looking at something else to get the right drive. If you haven't already tried, without attempting to mount it, load KDE's cd player from the menu and see if it will play, it should play. If not then it's possible your /dev/cdrom link isn't there or is pointing to the wrong device. If I remember right, Gnome's CD Player has a setting in the options menu which allows you to configure which device is the cd player. KDE's Player doesn't have this it is hard coded to look at /dev/cdrom. If KDE continues to give you trouble you can email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and we will see if we can't get this thing to work :) Boyd _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx ================================================ BRLUG - The Baton Rouge Linux User Group Visit http://www.brlug.net for more information.
