Does /dev/dvd exist? If not, you may need to make it a link to /dev/hdc or wherever your CD drive is. (It's /dev/hdc on my Thinkpad.) Incidentally, have a look at vlc. I find this to be better than xine for watching dvds. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] || http://www.acampbell.org.uk using Linux GNU/Debian || for book reviews, electronic Windows-free zone || books and skeptical articles -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
