webstreaming

[musicman]

Yeah, I knew about that added space in the html...my system can't seem
to find the cd drive either...I'm used to the old linux system where
it was under /dev/cdrom or whatever, but it's not there now, but I do
have cdrom, cdrom0 and cdrom1 in /media and /cdrom at root level - it
just wont find the music cds I put in...

any ideas on that problem?

cheers
L.
