Indeed, and this has even been reported by news websites. It appears that they are using a ported version M$ IIS on Linux.

And you can't play audio CD's on Mandrake Linux? Is your CD drive detected?

That's odd. I have used Mandrake 9.1 before, and I had no such problem. Maybe you should check Kmix (or some other mixer), perhaps the CD volume is simply too low?

i'm using RH9, and have the same problem.  it;s some sort of a hardware problem.  i'm not esactly sure, but it's something like the audio output from ur CR-ROM drive needs to be connected to ur sound card.
