 |

Hi,
I've gotten pretty frustrated with this. I have Sony CD-RW CRX230E, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive and I'm running kernel 2.6.8-rc1. cdparanoia was ripping CD's *extremely* slowly (like hours to rip tracks), and I read on their homepage to switch back to ide-scsi emulation to fix this. So I recompiled my kernel with ide-scsi emulation available and lo and behold I could now rip CD's much faster.
I ran into two problem though when I did this:
A) I had to switch some lines in /etc/devfsd.conf so that /dev/cdrom pointed to /dev/sg1 to make cdparanoia happy; I did this by altering the following lines:
| Quote: |
# Create /dev/cdrom for the first cdrom drive
#LOOKUP ^cdrom$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink cdroms/cdrom0 cdrom
LOOKUP ^cdrom$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink sg1 cdrom
#REGISTER ^cdroms/cdrom0$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink $devname cdrom
REGISTER ^sg1$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink $devname cdrom
#UNREGISTER ^cdroms/cdrom0$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL unlink cdrom
UNREGISTER ^sg1$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL unlink cdrom
|
Well this worked and cdparanoia was happy. But I ran into the second problem...
B) Kscd, Kaudiocreator, etc... are unable to see the cd-rom now -- I just get a "no disc" response from them. How can I make them "see" the drive???
Basically, I just want to be able to use my warm and fuzzy Kaudiocreator GUI to rip & encode audio CD's, but I'm having no luck... I'm not sure I headed down the right path. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
TIA |
