wine users - Apr 2001 - CD-ROM Labels

I attempted to run Frogger under Wine, but it asked me to insert the 
Frogger CD, even though it was already inserted and mounted (and the CD is 
configured in wine.conf).

When this happened, Wine gave the following message:

err:cdrom:CDROM_GetLabel We don't have a way of determining the label of a 
mixed mode CD - Linux doesn't allow raw access !!

Okay, so Wine could not get the label of the CD automatically, but in this 
case, shouldn't Wine default to the CD-ROM label I specified in wine.conf?  
And indeed, I put Label=FROGGER under the drive for my CD-ROM.

Yes, it should.
And it should work.

If it doesn't, then it's a bug that should be fixed.

Are you sure the label is *entirely* correct ?

Anyway, that err is wrong, so it should be changed.
Raw access is not implemented yet, but it's perfectly possible.

(any volunteers ? ;-)
