The source search offers me two occasions https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=package%3Acdparanoia+Unable+to+open+disc If there is really no text "Is there an audio CD in the drive?", then it's https://sources.debian.org/src/cdparanoia/3.10.2+debian-14/main.c/?hl=1041#L1041 I.e. cdda_open() did not return one of {0, -2 ... -6}. The "cdda" in the function name indicates that this function looks for CD-DA audio tracks, in contrast to CD-ROM data tracks.

To determine the CD track structure, put it into the drive (/dev/sr0 if it is the only CD capable drive of the computer) and do: cdrskin dev=/dev/sr0 -minfo which should report for CD-DA tracks something like: Track Sess Type Start Addr End Addr Size ============================================== 1 1 Audio 0 3289 3290 2 1 Audio 3290 6350 3061 3 1 Audio 6351 7643 1293 and for a CD-ROM track something like: Track Sess Type Start Addr End Addr Size ============================================== 1 1 Data 0 172027 172028 With wodim dev=/dev/sr0 -toc it looks a bit more cryptic. CD-DA is "control" 4: track: 1 lba: 0 ( 0) 00:02:00 adr: 1 control: 0 mode: -1 track: 2 lba: 3290 ( 13160) 00:45:65 adr: 1 control: 0 mode: -1 track: 3 lba: 6351 ( 25404) 01:26:51 adr: 1 control: 0 mode: -1 CD-ROM is "control" 0: track: 1 lba: 0 ( 0) 00:02:00 adr: 1 control: 4 mode: 1 Have a nice day :) Thomas
