how to insert a cd without running a program
 

I have some cds I want to rip. When I insert a cd, gxine runs which I
then have to cancel. How can I prevent gxine (or any other program) from
running? I don't see anything under 'System->Preferences->Preferred
Applications' or 'System->Preferences->Removable Drives and Media'.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It is indeed there (Multimedia tab), at least in Lenny/GNOME.

Mine is setup for DVD video:

[x] Auto-launch inserted media and "play with Totem".

Well, yes, I saw that but knew that was not what controlled it. You see,
mine too is set for Totem but it's actually gxine that runs. So, it's
got to be somewhere else.

Also there is no option there NOT to run a program.

How is that? Are you in Lenny? If yes, there is a checkbox you can toggle
to enable/disable that option :-?

Can you please load a snapshot?

Anyway, (in lenny) you can open Gconf editor and change it from there:

/desktop/gnome/volume_manager/autoplay_dvd
/desktop/gnome/volume_manager/autoplay_dvd_command

In squeeze, you can even select "Do nothing" for any kind of detected
media.

I'm running as much of testing as aptitude will allow me.

Attached (if the list accepts attachments) otherwise http://niof.net/dt/.

Neither that nor autoplay_cda had any effect. The command shows totem
but gxine is what runs.
