Mmm. I did make an observation about cdplay in a post a while back.
I use it sometimes and it works fine for me, but if you read the manual page
it shouldn't work at all. It is only supposed to work on SCSI drives.
No-one explained this mystery. I do have SCSI support compiled into my
kernel, but the only SCSI device I have is a hard disk.
As to whether this has got anything to do with anything I don't know,
no-one ever explained it, and I dropped the matter. Just thought I
would pass on that probably useless piece of information.
