Sorry to be a pain  - I've just tried Kaffine and it got most of the
way, but I got an error msg:

"xine message - audio output unavailable: device is busy. ()"

any ideas on that one....I must admit that I have picked this computer
up on the cheap, and didn't look inside, I just ran with the hardware
auto detect...and it seems to have failed with the audio - output
_and_ input...although I get broken glass sounds occasionally, so I
presume some audio is working somewhere...!

With Kaffine, I get an error along the lines of "No AudioCD in drive,
or wrong path to device" - now I know there's an audio cd in
there...so the path is wrong...

It also seems to have failed to pick up my dvd player?....

I put a data cd into the cd drive and it mounted
(datakid at refusal:/#mount /cdrom) and found all the data on the cd - so
it knows the cd drive is there...I just need to configure it
proper...pointers appreciated...
