Re: Newbie (to ppc), but glad to be here.

I can't answer 1 and 2, tight of the bat, but i can answer 3..:) i use xmms and the xmms-cdread plugin which has to run by itself so you'll have to disable the cdreading pluging that's built into xmms and enable this one, that way you can play audio CD's with a digitally. Jule On Mon, 2003-08-04
