Mounting bin/cue files
 

is it possible to mount .bin (or with a cue sheet) in linux?

normally i've converted them to iso to save the trouble, but now i'm wondering how could i mount those types of cd images?

i know that k3b can read the .bin files, so there must be a tool for understanding .bin files....

check this out
this should be what your looking for ..

thx for the site; i'll post back here when i try it out

there is also kiso : http://kiso.sourceforge.net/

and kiso is exactly the type of program i was looking for! a winiso replacement!

i'll have to try both these things out soon

I was looking for a program like this too.. thanks..

well, i tried compiling kiso, but configure gives me an error about not finding my kdelibs

i know i have my kdelibs-3.1.5 package installed (checked it in pkgtool, it is there, even checked the actual directories); i tried giving the extra command --with-extra-lib=/opt/kde/lib/ but that didn't work

how can i get kiso to recognize my kdelibs?

Time to answer my own question (whilst watching Super Bowl....)

alright, the reason for failure was actually that come part of Qt couldn't find plugins during configure; since i had updated kde (alond with kdelibs), some links were removed; thus, by installing the newest Qt from slackware-current, configure worked!

but the program installer is a bit buggy; unless you specify some sort of prefix, the program will not correctly install; so when doing configure, make sure to use the --prefix=/usr/local flag

finally, i have one question: what is DCOPServer? kiso uses this program and i have a feeling that it is a security risk...

i am glad that this is what u wanted :)

dcopserver is the program that allows KDE applications to communicate with each other.
but the thing is i havent tried kiso yet as i dont require to use it now , but i downloaded it as i loved winiso in windows so i searched for an alternative for it in linux

Hmmm I don't know if the latest version lost some of it's features, but kiso only supports ISO and NRG. cdemu worked for me, but its annoying having to use a text interface. Maybe I'll make a GTK frontend for it or something. Heh, as if I'll ever get around to that.
