New Programs

[Ed Sutherland]

Hi Robert,

I had the same problem as you: I'd insert and audio CD, it was 
recognized, but no sound. First thing, make sure it is mounted. Next, 
make sure you are using xmms-cdread (or something similar that can work 
with audio CDs.) Be sure to read the audio cd howto on the YDL site. Be 
sure to set your audio output in xmms correctly, depending on which 
environment you are in (KDE uses one server, Gnome uses another.)

As for a YDL forum, you can always post to 
yellowdog-newbie@lists.terrasoftsolutions.com. (Although, it is not 
archived.)
