-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 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. tony clayton wrote: > Package: ripperx > Version: 2.7.0-1 > Severity: normal > > > # ll /dev/cdrom > lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2005-12-08 19:38 /dev/cdrom -> hdd > # ll /dev/hdd > brw-rw---- 1 root disk 22, 64 2002-03-15 05:51 /dev/hdd > > When I start ripperx under a user account belonging to the 'disk' group, > I get a small blank popup window with "Error" in the title bar and no > further information, nothing in syslog either. > > ripperx running as root works just fine. > > -- System Information: > Debian Release: testing/unstable > APT prefers testing > APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') > Architecture: i386 (i686) > Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash > Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-a21m.19 > Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) > > Versions of packages ripperx depends on: > ii cdparanoia 3a9.8-13 An audio extraction tool for > sampl > ii libc6 2.3.6-15 GNU C Library: Shared libraries > ii libglib1.2 1.2.10-10.1 The GLib library of C routines > ii libgtk1.2 1.2.10-18 The GIMP Toolkit set of widgets > fo > ii libid3-3.8.3c2a 3.8.3-5 Library for manipulating ID3v1 > and > ii libx11-6 2:1.0.0-7 X11 client-side library > ii libxext6 1:1.0.0-4 X11 miscellaneous extension > librar > ii libxi6 1:1.0.0-5 X11 Input extension library > ii vorbis-tools 1.1.1-5 several Ogg Vorbis tools > > ripperx recommends no packages. > > -- no debconf information > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEsww/pdwBkPlyvgMRAsfjAKCAwsXHSbxLN73h0hNHvyjgecXevgCferYt gZCyXOFmEagpWH0zhGmNKl8= =xkA6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
