[wplug] CDROM no long reads Audio CD's

[Coutch, Robert]

This comes up a lot.

An audio CD is not iso-9660 format.
To mount it you need drivers for CD Audio format.

There are some older ones around but I could never get this working.

CD Players use the raw drive (/dev/hd?) to play audio.

If you need to copy, use some of the CD tools like cdparanoia, cdrecord,
xcdroast, grip ...etc.

Maybe someone at WPLUG can tell where you might find drivers.

Anyone know why this might happen?  I can mount data cd's fine but audio
cd's get the following error:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom,
       or too many mounted file systems

This is the corresponding dmesg entry:

isofs_read_super: bread failed, dev=16:00, iso_blknum=16, block=32
hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: command error: error=0x51
end_request: I/O error, dev 16:00 (hdc), sector 64
