Hi,

I am a little confused about using xcdroast on YDL 4.01 on a PowerMac G4  
"Silver" with a self-compiled kernel 2.6.10.

Following the hints in the kernel sources, I dropped ide-scsi and  
configured xcdroast to use /dev/hdc as reader and writer device, which in  
turn loads the modules ide_cd and cdrom.

Problem 1: regular users can not access the device through xcdroast,  
although the permissions are fine. Only root is able to see the device and  
an inserted disk.

Problem 2: I insert a data cd, but xcdroast claims that the cd contains an  
audio track. Trying to read the track anyway failes with cdda errors, and  
xcdroast can not be canceled (maybe I didn't wait long enough, though).

Problem 3: I insert an audio cd, but reading the audio tracks still  
failes. It *is* possible to read the audio tracks directly using  
cdparanoia from the command line, though.

What works:
- I can burn cd's from audio tracks read using cdparanoia;
- I can master and burn data tracks. However, although the data track is  
shown as a data track (with a cd icon) in the hard disk temp folder, when  
I read the cd it's again an audio track.

I am using the following rpm's:
xcdroast-0.98a15-6.yd4.1
cdrecord-2.01.1-0.yd4.1
cdrdao-1.1.9-4.FC.1
cdda2wav-2.01.1-0.yd4.1

Any ideas?

TIA, Albrecht.
