+speedcontrol is a console app to change the rotation speed of
+dvd-rom drives, to for example make them quieter while watching
+a dvd movie.
+
+Usage: Speedcontrol -x1 /dev/sr0
+
+This will set the rotation speed of /dev/sr0 to 1x (-x0 will reset
+to original speed). speedcontrol will only work as root, even
+though it displays "OK" when run as normal user (it will simply
+not work)
