Well, you just might do a " ps aux | grep /dev/cdrom " to see if any processes in the background are hogging your drive. If so, just kill them using "kill -9 <pid>". Make sure the process isn't one within X, otherwise you might bring down the X Server! :) HTH ===== -- Viksit Gaur http://www.viksit.com me[at]viksit.com viksit[at]linux-delhi[dot]org 'Not all who wander are lost.' - J.R.R.
