<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks for all your feedback - to answer the points
raised:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1. I have played CDs oh the machine using both
Win2k and SuSE 8.2 so I don't think the connection could be the
cause.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2. I will try the xmms option as
advised</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The strange thing is that what worked (CD playing)
using SuSE 8.2 failed using SuSE 9.0 with exactly the same hardware
set-up. </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>Additionally the K3b burning
software that did not work using 8.2 now appears to work using 9.0 and I
also noted that the winmodem now works (it did not work under 8.2 I had to use a
Hayes hardware modem).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Interesting !</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks again for then helpful advice</FONT></DIV>
