Set CD-ROM Speed FOR LINUX
Set CD-ROM Speed FOR LINUX is a handy app that helps you control the speed of your CD-ROM and DVD-ROM drives. It's written in Kommander, so it’s pretty straightforward to use. The cool thing is, when we talk about 'CD-ROM drive,' we're actually referring to all sorts of drives, including recorders.
Why Speed Matters
You might wonder why speed is such a big deal. Well, super-fast CD-ROM drives can be noisy! They need to spin the disks really fast to keep up with high data transfer rates. This can lead to a loud humming sound that makes listening to your favorite MP3s or OGG music from CDs really annoying. Plus, if you're just using the CD for other tasks that don’t need high speed, that noise can be downright distracting.
Customize Your Drive Speed
With Set CD-ROM Speed FOR LINUX, you can easily lower your drive's speed and cut down on that annoying noise. The app has a simple GUI where you can pick from three predefined speeds or even set a custom speed yourself!
Easy Integration and Language Support
The program generates a list of available CD-ROM drives based on info from /etc/fstab. This means it works well even if you’re using supermount-ng for mounting your CDs. Plus, it supports multiple languages with various translations available!
KDE Integration
If you're using KDE, you'll love this: Set CD-ROM Speed FOR LINUX adds an option right in the context menu for your CD-ROM and DVD-ROM icons on the desktop. It makes adjusting your drive speed super convenient!
Free Software License
The best part? Set CD-ROM Speed FOR LINUX is free software! It’s licensed under the GNU General Public License, so you don’t have to worry about paying for it.
