This device is hard-coded in some way, I got the rid of that by fetching kdemultimedia-1.1, configuring the port and then you can find a kscd-script under ....work/kdemultimedia-1.1/kscd directory. Execute the script just before building the kscd application and you are set. Perhaps somebody can explain a cleaner way and why the port is as it is. I mean the IDE cdroms are much more common than the proprietary ones. -- Vallo Kallaste vallo@matti.ee To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
