OK. Did that and got a slightly different rules file. Initial testing
was encouraging but that was just a delay in the onset of the monitor
cycling.
The grip help talks about making sure that IDE devices use SCSI
emulation as the 2.4 kernels didn't support dma for IDE. Has that
changed for the 2.6 kernels?
Just checked the archives for the grip-users mailing list and saw a post
saying that grip was no longer being maintained in debian. Further
investigation led me to cdda2wav (for which grip is evidently a front
end). Looks like I can use that directly from the command line without
any problem so that will be what I will do.
Thanks for your responses.
