I recommend you to get a recent cdrtools (e.g. from |
| 19 |
ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha/) |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
and install cdda2wav suid root. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Then call: |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
cdda2wav -e -N -B |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
If everything is OK, then you will be able to listen to the music. |
| 28 |
Otherwise you see human readble error messages that point you to the problem. |
