xcdroast - paranoia integration.

2003-01-10 Thread David Fisher
Hi all. I have just upgraded to the latest version of xcdroast from sid and find that according to the changelogs cdparanoia is now integrated. I have not been able to work out how to force xcdroast to use cdparanoia instead of cdda2wav when ripping. Does it just use it anyway (if available)

Only just saw your email and haven'y any other replies so I'll bite. The IRQ setting for your card does not match the allocated one. Check your boot up messages to see what IRQ is allocated then use the Adaptec config tool to change the card to it. Hope this helps, David
