Installing the XMMS plugin is the first step. There are two ways to get XMMS to work...
1) From "L" or "Play File" In XMMS "L" (or select "Play file" from the menu) Navigate to /dev/cdrom (or whatever device name your CD has) Click on "Play". Nothing happens, but don't worry... Click on right-pointing triangle (2nd from the left along the bottom) ...and it finally plays. 2) From "CTRL-C" or "Play AudioCD" In XMMS "CTRL-C" or (or select "Play AudioCD" from the menu) Click on right-pointing triangle (2nd from the left along the bottom) Menu opens up. It's already at /dev and the selection "cdrom" Click on "Play". Nothing happens, but don't worry... Click on right-pointing triangle (2nd from the left along the bottom) ...and it finally plays. Somewhat convoluted, if you ask me. -- Walter Dnes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> In linux /sbin/init is Job #1 My musings on technology and security at http://tech_sec.blog.ca -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
