When I put a Cdrom in the drive and open xmms, nothing is shown.
If I try to mount the CD by clicking on the cdrom then mount in the bottom right hand corner of the desktop I get an error message saying "Error... or too many mounted file systems".
I don't have anything else mounted (other than my hda, of course)
My system is an old IBM Aptiva with 128 Mb Ram, using 2.5Gb of hard disk with Windows 98SE using the other 2.5GB. Windows does see the CD.
Any ideas?

Audio cdroms cannot be mounted, there are no files there..

Did you click "play cd" after starting xmms?

Thanks Curaga. That did it. I'm still getting used to the different ways of doing things between Windoze and DSL
