> find a player program that can do digital playback.  XMMS can do this

Here, playing around on Fedora 9.  I can get XMMS, VLC, & Rhythmbox, at
least, to play back digital audio from a CD drive.  None of which I
recall adding anything extra to manage it, but then it's only just now
that I've tried to play an audio CD on this computer.

Perhaps looking for something listed below might start you off in the
right direction.  I started off with the extra Livna repo on my system,
which is now handled by RPM fusion.  Perhaps you need to use more than
just the official Fedora repos to install from.
