Slackware Linux 14.1

The present document assumes you performed full installation of Slackware
Linux.  To configure cdwrite in Slackware Linux perform the following steps:

1. Copy the following block of text:

      #-------------------------------------------------------------------
      %users	ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/mount, /bin/umount

      %users	ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/mkisofs, /usr/bin/cdrecord, \
				/usr/bin/cdda2wav, /usr/bin/cdrdao, \
				/usr/bin/dvd+rw-format

      %users	ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/kill
      #-------------------------------------------------------------------

   and paste it at the end of /etc/sudoers file.

2. For the basic cdwrite functionality install the following packages:

      - lame,
      - and mp3gain

   from SlackBuilds.org.

3. Run cdwrite -c command to check where cdwrite seeks for the configuration
   file and customize that file to your needs.  You will find the hints about
   ambiguous cdwrite.conf variables in the last section of INSTALL file.
   First of all test manually cdda-player.  If it plays audio CDs,
   ``change cd_player'' variable from ``mplayer'' to ``cdda-player''.

4. For full musica script functionality install the following packages:

     - mac,
     - ffmpeg,
     - faad2,
     - and musepack-tools

   from SlackBuilds.org.

5. For full cdwrite functionality install CDDB_get Perl module package (see:
   http://search.cpan.org/):

      tar xzf CDDB_get-2.28.tar.gz
      cd CDDB_get-2.28
      perl Makefile.PL
      make
      make install

   as well as the following packages:

     - mutagen

   or:

     - id3lib
     - and id3v2

   from SlackBuilds.org.

   The mutagen package is necessary if you would like to set ID3 tags in MP3
   files using UTF-8 encoding.

For the detailed description of the installation process see INSTALL file.
