Manually trying to mount it just gives me the read error no medium found. So it's hardware recognition specific, I guess. Looks like I'll have to rumage around a little more but first I'll try an update-install it's been known to help before:o) Good luck, HarM Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I use Mplayer now, it works much better, has an easier configuration and seems to pick up DVD navigation much better than Xine. You might want to try it, it comes with the Mandrake 9.1 distribution now. Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
