"matcd" is the driver for old Matsushita proprietary CD-ROM drives. rmatcd would be the raw-mode access to such a drive. The error message from KDE uses the name of the drive that it is configured to use, so: 1) Figure out what CD-ROM you actually have and give it the correct permissions in /dev. 2) Find the setting buried somewhere in the KDE configuration that tells it which device to access for the CD. I think if you open the CD player, it has a button that opens its configuration, and you need to find the setting that now says /dev/rmatcd0 and change it to /dev/acd0c (assuming you are using an IDE/ATAPI CD drive). I don't think you need to use the raw mode driver, which would be /dev/racd0c. > -----Original Message----- > From: Kent Stewart [SMTP:kstewart@urx.com] > Sent: Friday, 28 July, 2000 0141 > To: caffeinex2@monmouth.com > Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: cd player error > > > > caffeine wrote: > > > > CDROM read or access error....make sure you have access permissions to > > /dev/rmatcd0c thats what i get when i try to run KDE's cd player > > > > i get a similar one in gnomes...its something like make sure cd rom > > support is in your kernel code. > > > > my cd-rom works fine for everything else ecept when i try to use a cd > > player to play a music cd.
