root at boo-boo:~# regionset /dev/scd
regionset version 0.1 -- reads/sets region code on DVD drives
ERROR: Could not open disc "/dev/scd"!
Please ensure there is a readable CD or DVD in the drive.
root at boo-boo:~# regionset /dev/scd0
regionset version 0.1 -- reads/sets region code on DVD drives
Current Region Code settings:
RPC Phase: II
type: NONE
vendor resets available: 4
user controlled changes resets available: 5
drive plays discs from region(s):, mask=0xFF

Would you like to change the region setting of your drive? [y/n]:y
Enter the new region number for your drive [1..8]: 

I think this means it is already set, right?
