When I run xine-check, I get the following; You don't have a /dev/cdrom device. This is the default device that xine uses for playing VCDs or CDs. You could make your life easier by creating a symlink named /dev/cdrom pointing to your real CD device (something like /dev/scd0 or /dev/hdc). If your cdrom device is /dev/hdb (slave ATAPI device on primary bus), ln -s hdb /dev/cdrom I have tried all sorts of link stuff, I think my cdrom is sr0 what should the command be? thanks norman -- Norman LeCouvie Executive Director - Government Sector International Americas Sun Microsystems Inc.
