[paranoia] Newbie User - Can't read CD

Yes.  Cdparanoia would have told you if there was generic SCSI trouble.  The 
below proves you have it set up correctly.

Neat!  You really do have a drive for which cdparanoia doesn't know (and can't
find) the command set, yet the drive is CDDA capable.  This is the first
documented example in nearly ten months :-)

Does the windows utility happen to mention what packet command it's using to
read from the drive?  I can make a bunch more educated guesses if you're
willing to try them.  It's also possible that the autoprobe is confusing the
drive such that the working command follows a probe that puts the CDROM into a
funky state.

Uh... hmm.  The drive claims it can't do esxtraction.  A windows utility 
actually manages it?  Or is it just setting the drive to play back the audio 
and then resampling the analog using a sound card?  (I'm not trying to pooh on 
the utility that works, just trying to make sure we know what it's doing 
before heading off on any wild goose chases.)
