No, it's a very good point.
I tried a music disk, pushing the play button on the drive itself, and it
doesn't play. The drive lights up when I'm loading a disk into it, then
nothing else happens when I push the play button. I'm probably looking at a
bad drive, but want to eliminate all other possibilities before putting in a
new one.
Using KSCD as root I get the following error:
CD-ROM read or access error (or no audio disc in drive).
Please make sure you have access permissions to:
/dev/cdrom1
In a console, as root:
root@localhost:/home/tigerflag# cd /dev/cdrom1
bash: cd: /dev/cdrom1: No such file or directory
