Having hard drives at both scsi 0 and 1, I have not been able to get
CDPlayer.app to find my CD player (scsi 2 and position 2), as the
release notes indicate. The Public Window Server autolaunch trick, no
security risk for my standalone machine, does not work for me, either. I
tried running CDPlayer inside gdb, and obtained the following errors:

cdutil: findDrive: Ioctl SGIOCSTL failed: 2
cdutil: findDrive: Permission denied
cdutil: findDrive: Ioctl SGIOCSTL failed: 7
cdutil: findDrive: Permission denied

Maybe this will give some SCSI guru out there an idea. cdutil might or
might not be the utility cdaudio.util in /usr/filesystems/cdaudio.fs.
I'd love to patch CDPlayer or cdaudio.util or whatever to make this work.

I'm guessing that the '2' is my cdrom, and the 7 is the cpu, but I don't
really know beans about this.
