And the system probes it at its right addr and irq. Ensure the drive is not mounted before starting xcd. I am familiar with xmcd, not xcd, but I will try this. Look in the source code for a README or the Makefile. There is probably some comment about defining your cd drive. Most of these programs assume '/dev/cd0' which is wrong for folks like us. Change the appropriate setting to read '/dev/wcd0'. Also, make sure that you have sufficient perms for the wcd0 device.
