I'm running -stable from Feb 26 and latest kde and CD contents are only properly seen if you first insert the cd, then wait, and then choose the app from the "hal" menu (which takes several seconds to pop up). But even then ripping seems to deadlock, it just hangs and does nothing after you queue and start, and kscd/amarok don't play anything. Amarok merely shows the titles briefly. Both with self-made CDs and official audio CDs. It's possible that my DVD player/recorder is just dying but I'm afraid we're having a more general regression here. Dan
