I finally bit the bullet and re-installed. At that point I got the printer
printing but using ps which makes it very slow so will have to alter that
somehow.
The next thing I did was to enable the cddrives using sr0 and sr1. These then
were available at last to the system and xcdroast without having to use the
append statement in menu.lst.
I also saw that there was at last an icon for the cardreader, which i hasd to
change and rename, as it was trying to mount on /auto/sda. I had success with
/dev/sda1 in mounting it on /carddisk and being able to read the files at
last with konqueror. Now this took place in /root, but as user it will not
let me mount it even with permissions like this;
brw-rw-rw- 1 kantoine users 8, 1 Apr 28 05:38 /dev/sda1
Now why not and /carddisk is owned by kantoine.users.....................
There is something funny with this, otherwise the only problem now is this
plus sound not working.
