>Description:
Hi,

I just bought an Iomega USB CD-RW 16x10x40 external cdrom/recorder and it
works well with NetBSD (1.6A). I am able to record and read off the drive.
However, when I try to play music (audio) from it, I get
ioctl(CDIOCPLAYTRACKS): Invalid argument error! What do I need to do to play
audio cd off the external USB drive?

/dev/cd0a is my internal ATAPI cdrom
/dev/cd1a is my external USB cdrom

so to play audio, I am doing

cdplay -f /dev/cd1a

or using xcdplayer,

xcdplayer -device /dev/cd1a

But all gives me that `ioctl(CDIOCPLAYTRACKS): Invalid argument` error!


Here's my short dmesg:
