>> That was a confusion in the earlier thread. Software support for ODs was always >> supposed to be part of 3.0, and is, in fact, there. It is the Turbo hardware I'll agree with "supposed to". The OD works, but 3.0 Workspace doesn't seem to think that it's a removable media, and the Eject operation is not lit and does not function. Nor does dropping the OD in the recycler. Nor does logging off. In fact, the only time I tried logging off with the OD still mounted and all, the system froze. The only thing that does work is to umount and disk -e as root. I have also had problems ejecting CD's, but I haven't played enough with that to characterize the problems completely. Mark Adler madler@cco.caltech.edu
