Hi Roland:
Thanks for getting back to me. I tried your suggestion, but it did not
work. Here's what I did:
1 Tried to pkg_delete cdrtools
that failed because of dependencies
2 pkg_delete -f
that deleted the old crtools
3 install compat5x
it became necessary some time time ago
4 installed 2.01.01a11 from ports with make install clean
installed successfully
Now when I start xcdroast the main menu comes up, but there is no option
for DVD only CD.
What else can I do to try to figure this out?
Thanks,
Andy
