arjan's 2.6test kernels and sound

Hi,

Check /etc/grub.conf, find the "kernel" line for your 2.6.0-test kernel, 
and remove "hdc=ide-scsi".

ide-scsi is broken, so you have to remove that from the configuration. I 
had difficulties playing CDs under 2.6, and that fixed it. I also just 
verified that I could autorun data CDs as well (inserted RH9 disc 1, and 
it wanted to install packages from RedHat 9 :)

Hope that fixes things.

-Dan
