It sounds > stupid, but I was that stupid who forgot that ;-) I know that all cable connections are correct in my machine because I can get CD music output in Win XP (my PC is dual boot) through speakers whether I use my CD-RW or DVD-ROM drive. Plus, I got CD music through my speakers when I used Red Hat Linux 9 (again, it worked on either drive). As I already mentioned I upgraded RH 9 to Fedora Core 2. This solved the problem I had of using CD-RWs on my machine on my particular CD-RW drive (it used to take a really long time to mount any CD-RW) that I had - I have no such problems in Fedora Core 2, for CD-RWs can now be mounted very quickly. I think the change in kernel from 2.4.x to 2.6.x helped a lot there. Unfortunately, CD music in Fedora Core 2 can only be listened to through headphones at the moment. But I'll be okay with that. Yes, when I use XMMS's CD extraction tool and cdda2wav to create WAV files there is no problem playing music. Incidentally, my CD-RW drive is a TEAC CD-W524E, and my DVD-ROM drive is a LG DRD-8160B. I should have mentioned my PC is dual boot in my first post. Thanks, Rahul ___________________________________________________________ALL-NEW Yahoo!
