Ok. Another point of interest.

If I do ``head /dev/scd0'' as a user, it fails.

If I do ``head /dev/scd0'' as root, it works.

I had always thought that since I could autoload the sound stuff as a
normal user, that this would work as well.

Course, I also just noticed that rmmod -a doesn't unload modules either.
Grrrr.
