- Ed,
-
- From the ultrix-faq on gatekeeper, I find:
-
-
- ==============================================
- 1. How do I play music CDs on DEC CD-ROM drives?
-
- Music CDs can be played through a speaker jack on RRD42 CD-ROM drives,
- which is the one contained in the DECstation 5000/{120,125} box.
-
- There are two different programs: A command line version and a
- Motif-based version. Both can be found in:
-
- gatekeeper.dec.com or decuac.dec.com
- in /pub/DEC:
- cdp.c[.Z] /* command line version */
- xcd_source.tar.Z /* Motif version. */
-
- Neither of these programs is supported by Digital.
-
-
-
-
- I hope that this answers your question.
-
- Thanx,
- AJ
