Hello Clayton,

ripperx will definitely run without root privileges, so I have to suspect
that it is having some permissions problems accessing your CD-ROM.

Try "cdparanoia -v -Q" on the command-line as the same user you're trying to
run ripperx as.  (FWIW, it's customary for the CD-ROM device to be in the
"cdrom" group, although I don't think that's the problem.)

Also, can you confirm that you're not passing any additional options to
cdparanoia (Config -> Wav tab)?  In particular, that "Force search for drive
(ignore /dev/cdrom)" is not selected, and that the system isn't passing a
device file explicitly - e.g. "-d /dev/hdc" in the Extra Options: input box.

Hope that helps.
