I'm a newbie as well (if not in terms of length of use, certainly in terms 
of knowledge:), so caveat emptor and all that.

First, I also have had problems with xcdplayer, and didn't want to install 
all the supporting Gnome utils to use gdcd (if you have most/all of gnome 
installed already, you may want to try it).  I installed ascd, and it works.

Second, I was just wondering if you needed the pcm0 line in your kernel at 
all, or if device pcm wouldn't take care of it; and if the second pcm line 
is in your kernel, should it refer to pcm1?

my xcdplayer still complains about the

However, xcdplayer complains (even when ran as root):

# xcdplayer

Any idea what causes this error message?
