--- i've just aquired an old sony 2x usb cdr drive here and i have absolutely no idea how to make it work under redhat 7.2. upon turning it on, the machine made some noise, perhaps recognising the thing, but it didn't appear on my kde desktop, and outside of that, i have no idea how to see the drive, let alone write to a blank disc inside it. something else to note here is that i already have a cdrom in the machine, so this makes two cd drives. i don't know if this makes a difference other than /dev/cdrom obviously can't point to both. so my questions are these: - how can i tell it's recognised? (can't i "ping" it or something?) - how do i make it work if it's not recognised? - how do i write to a cd inside? .what software do i use? a couple links is all i really need here, but any information the list could provide would be o so helpful. _________________________________ daniel. a. g. quinn www.cravingthesoulfood.org be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity - horace mann, first president, antioch college. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
