Comment 83 for bug 478962

Hi,

I am trying to do this, but the more I read it the more sure I am that I have no idea what I am supposed to do. I am functionally semi-illiterate when it comes to most of the jargon. I only know the terms I've specifically been taught, and with no one really to ask anything of, that's a pretty low vocabulary.

I'm not sure what you mean by "terminal," exactly, or where to "type it in" ~ do you mean to type "rhythmbox -d" somewhere? Could you be really specific about where you mean for me to type it? If you can clarify that, I think I might be able to follow the directions from there on. I'll try, anyway. ;-)

Thank you!

Doris

> during insertion of a CD. You can do this in the terminal, just type it in and press Enter before you put a CD in, and then put it in while that is running in the background. It will come up in the terminal with a load of debugging stuff. If you could copy and paste this output into gedit Text Editor or Openoffice Writer, and then attach that file to this bug report that would be great!

> Bug description:
> === Summary ===
> Occurred after upgrade from Jaunty to Karmic. Everything worked fine in Jaunty.
>
> Latest version of Rhythmbox for Karmic Koala does not detect the CD for playing music. The "Import File..." procedure to load the CD does not yield a CD to select.
>
> === Workaround ===
> Use alternate media player like Banshee.
>
> === Cause ===
> Not exactly sure of the cause. This may be a non-intuitive user interface issue, or possibly something is wrong to prevent Rhythmbox from properly detecting the CD.
