I can't play audio cds. I used to use gnome-cd, but that seems to be gone now, and none of the other CD players will play sound. KsCD will even show the track titles on the CD, but it won't play sound. I checked the log file, but I couldn't find anything. I couldn't mount my CD (in the past this wasn't necessary for audio CDs, but I thought I'd try it anyway), and then I got something in the log. My /dev/cdrom is a link to /dev/hda:
camille ~ # grep /dev/hda /var/log/messages Oct 6 11:41:41 camille GFS2: Unrecognized block device or mount point /dev/hda Oct 6 11:42:13 camille GFS2: Unrecognized block device or mount point /dev/hda Oct 6 11:42:35 camille GFS2: Unrecognized block device or mount point /dev/hda camille ~ # ls -l /dev/hda brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 3, 0 Oct 6 07:06 /dev/hda and I am in the cdrom group: camille ~ # grep cdrom /etc/group cdrom:x:19:michael,haldaemon and the audio group: camille ~ # grep audio /etc/group audio:x:18:amy,michael,mythtv I rebooted into Windows XP, where the same CD played just fine. Can anyone tell me what's going on with this?
