Re: [gentoo-user] /dev/dvd playing up
My guess is that you have a permissions problem with your DVD device (/dev/hdc). Check the permissions there. Mine looks like this: brw-rw 1 root disk 22, 0 Mar 10 12:47 hdc If that is your case just `gpasswd -a yourusername disk` and you should be good to go. Don't bother trying to change the permissions on hdc since they will be reverted back when you next reboot. -MikeOn 8/7/05, Daniel Drake [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Antoine wrote: Using mplayer [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ mplayer dvd://1 Playing dvd://1. libdvdread: Could not open device with libdvdcss. libdvdread: Can't open /dev/dvd for reading Couldn't open DVD device: /dev/dvd /dev/dvd is there - but I am not sure if this is right.

I was not in the cdrom group before and the mount options has users... I guess I should have thought of it, once again thanks heaps Cheers Antoine -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
