DSL 0.63
HD installation
128 MB RAM
AMD K6-400MHz cpu

Commercial audio CDs are not recognized at all. Not as file systems or audio disks. I have read that one would have to boot using TORAM using a CD boot, but I have a HD system.

Ideas?

How are you trying to play the CDs?

hmm, i am having this same problem. xmms won't play audio CDs. i don't think it's a hardware problem, cause i have 5 comps (at last count) running DSL 0.6.3, and none of them will play CDs.

They say if you play a Microsoft CD backwards, you hear satanic messages. That's nothing, cause if you play it forwards, it installs Windows.

I play audio CD's by booting knoppix toram, then Menu->Apps->Sound/MPEG/VoIP->XMMS->Xmms Play CD.
Then, open /cdrom2, and there is your list from the audio cd.
(/cdrom is the KNOPPIX folder where DSL is)
Add them all to your XMMS playlist, and click on one to begin playing.

To use Shoutcast.com, take a look at my Getting Started Guide, from
my remaster of DSL:

I have XMMS set up to automatically start when a station is clicked in
Shoutcast.com, using Mozilla Firefox.
Do not have to use the knoppix toram to do that, only with Xmms Play CD.
However, if you did boot "toram", then you can do both.

I forgot to ask if anyone has gotten the "Visualization Plugins" to work when using
Xmms Play CD. I have added "Bump Scope" to my remaster, and I notice that none of
the scopes work in Play CD, only when using XMMS with Firefox to listen to internet
radio stations such as on Shoutcast.com.
Then, one can start several of them if you have enough cpu power.
