30 I have tried to use splay on the command line with no kde running, I'm not sure
31 if this is a good program to run or if I am trying to use it correctly.
32 If I try and mount /dev/sr0 I get a message " Can't read superblock" I used
33 "mount -t iso9660 /dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom
34
35 I must admit to being a bit lost now and not sure what to try next
36 Again thanks for your help
