sound/CD

[Gérard Degrez]

Hi,

As the list is alive again, I would like to get 
back to two small problems I am still having with 
MOL (OSX)/Mandrakelinux 10.1 on an iBookG4.
1) Sound:
Initially, sound was working properly but, after 
a few days sounds started being deformed (I have 
the impression the sampling frequency is not 
right any more). I don't recall making any change 
to the MOL/linux settings. Any idea about the 
source of the problem and how I can fix it?
I include the MOL sound settings and MOL log below.
2) CDs
CDs don't show up oon the desktop.
After looking into the list archives, I figure I should comment out the blkdev
definition of the CD drive in molrc.osx to substitute it with a definition
as a scsi device, but I am not sure about the syntax. Any suggestion?

TIA,

Gérard
