I'm having a problem in Linux, happens with Mandrake or Red Hat, the
cdrom icon on the desktop allows me to mount normal data cdroms but won't
mount or read normal music CDs.
Has anyone else had this problem and can they please help me.
Lex.

Linux *is* user-friendly.
It's just a little picky about it's friends.
1. CD readers that can read data off music CDs
All CD drivers can, of course, be used to play music CDs via the
analog output, usually routed via the sound card to the
speakers. However, I would like to read the music in digital form,
using the program cdda2wav, to compress with mpeg3 and store on my
hard disk. MPEG3 is supposed to compress by a factor of 24 to still
give a FM-stereo quality sound, so that I can squeeze 20 CDs on a 500
MB spare disk that I have.
I have a relatively old 1995 SCSI drive that does this just fine;
however, a recent model 8x IDE CDROM by Acer (model JVP685A)
gives these errors:
Oct 15 14:02:54 rrdlinuxb4 kernel: hdd: packet command error: status=0x51
Oct 15 14:02:54 rrdlinuxb4 kernel: hdd: packet command error: error=0x50
Oct 15 14:02:54 rrdlinuxb4 kernel: hdd: code: 0x70 key: 0x05 asc: 0x24 ascq: 0x00
Are IDE drives expected to be less capable than SCSI in this regard? or do
they simply use a different ATAPI protocol that cdda2wav doesn't know about?
