Hi,

I'm a happy user of Slackintosh 10.2 on an Apple G3 Wallstreet.

Things generally work very well.

I do have two issues I'd like to resolve.

1) I can't physically eject a PC Card while in Slackintosh.

I've tried pbbuttons but all that does is issue cardctl eject. I tried pccardctl eject that only seems to logically eject the card but NOT physically eject the card. Currently I have to either turn off the machine so I can press the PC card eject button or boot into Mac OS 9 to *E the card.

2) I can't play Audio CD's while in Slackintosh.

I can read data CD's but when I try something like Workbone, it returns immediately. No error message. It's been a while since I was looking at Workbone code but I thought that maybe the IOCTL to play an audio CD has a problem. I really don't know what the problem is.

Do you have any solution to the above two issues?

I'm running kernel 2.6.18.8.

If you need more information, ask.

Eddie
