Audio CDs should no longer be interrupted under Executor/Linux,
starting with 1.99p5.  I don't know for sure that it will work with
every CD-ROM driver, and I don't know what kernels are required, but
it was tested and works with the SCSI CD-ROM driver under 1.2.13.

Any success or failure reports for this feature in 1.99p5?

Remember to vote for comp.emulators.mac.executor.
