I just did the EXACT same thing...put ubuntu 9.1 on my old DELL Dimension 4100 (P3 866, with 512 RAM and 80GB hdd)....
The only thing I cannot do is to get my music cd's to play in rhythmbox. Data cd's load and are "seen" just fine...the frives are "seen" in my computer (and bios).
If I take a "DOORS" commercially music cd, and insert it into my cd drive, I hear the drive spin up, but nothing happens.
O removed and reinstalled rhythmbox, and still doesn't work.
If I take mp3's and copy them over into my ubuntu system, everything plays just fine in rhythmbox.
I have been all over ubuntu forums, rhythmbox manuals, to no success.
If anybody has ideas as to the steps needed, please advise.
Thanks!
