eco2geek,
Line 2 in the fstab has mounted /dev/hda5 to /cdrom.
Log in as root and make a backup of the fstab file first. The edit it:-
Comment out the second line by adding a hex (#) in front of it.
Insert a 3rd line as such:-
/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noexec,noauto 0 0
Goto to /dev directory and type:-
chmod 777 /dev/cdrom
chmod a+r /dev/scd0
After that try playing audio cd and see if it works. If it does, you would have to mount /dev/hda5 to somewhere else.
Oh, one thing I found out regarding audio CDs, if you have KDE v3.2.3 (doesn't work for KDE v3.2.2):
If you stick an audio CD in, fire up the Konqueror Web browser, and type audiocd:/ in the address bar, it'll show you a list of the tracks on your audio CD! On mine, it also shows a folder called "Ogg Vorbis", and I can drag track(s) out of that folder and Konqueror will convert/save them as Ogg Vorbis files.
Apparently some versions of Konqueror that you can download from KDE also have MP3 conversion support built in.
Other protocols Konqueror supports (such as "fish" for ssh) can be seen by pulling up the KDE Info Center and clicking on Protocols.
Edit: I should say, it works with KDE 3.2.3 on Kanotix BugHunter 7a, but not with KDE 3.2.2 on Knoppix 3.4. Haven't tested it with Knoppix 3.6 yet.
Oh, by the way, it's a DVD-ROM drive, (it plays cd's too 8) ) . Is this the problem?
No, should not be a problem.
Post the your /etc/fstab file here so we can see how are your drives mounted.
When I was trying to save the /etc/fstab output, it wouldn't let me save to the hard drive for some reason, so I tried a floppy disk. It said that mount point /mnt/auto/floppy doesn't exist, or something like that. It's that same basic thing I get with the cdrom. I think there's a problem with both of them.
Kowood,
I don't think there is anything wrong with your system (perhaps the mount points have been changed).
Go to your home directory and type the following:-
cat /etc/fstab > fstabfile.txt
The output of fstab should be in fstabfile.txt.
How did you do this?? With Konqueror 3.3.0 on Knoppix 3.4 all I get is a 'Protocol not supported" message. No 'audiocd' protocol in info center either.Quote:

And it's being referred to as an "I/O slave" and part of the "kio" package...so...there it is in a Debian package search, called "kdemultimedia-kio-plugins" (not installed)...so...on my Knoppix 3.4 installation...
# apt-get update && apt-get install kdemultimedia-kio-plugins
Bingo. Now it's there. Try that.
Where the heck do I find the KDE Info Center?
TIA,
AJG
On Knoppix 3.4, "K menu" > "System" > "Info Center", or use the command "kinfocenter &" in a console, or press Alt-F2 and type "kinfocenter" :wink:
