I didn't use cdemu - I would need to package that - but I mounted the data
collection type .iso I recorded into an ISO file. From what I can tell, it 
works.

I have issues with the icons, but that's just my personal WM/DM (which is 
pretty sminimal)
and can be addressed later on (this is trivial and you just need the right icon 
set).

I'll attach the latest patches.
Let's just merge this now and address the rest later, okay?
I have other issues I need to work on, and from where I stand this
is done - all the basic issues have been fixed.
I appreciate the help Thomas, thanks for what you have done. It's
extraordinary, we usually don't get it like this.

Thanks!
