Hi all  :-)

I have done some digging around on this one but am not getting anywhere.
I am trying to get xcdroast working for user 'dave' (me !)

bash-2.05b# uname -a
Linux dave_comp 2.6.10-gentoo-r4 #1 Tue Jan 11 17:49:56 GMT 2005 i686 Pentium III (Coppermine) GenuineIntel GNU/Linux


xcdroast works fine for root.

I have checked cdrecord ...
ls -al /usr/bin/cdrecord
-rwx--x--x  1 root root 342628 Oct 17 15:35 /usr/bin/cdrecord

xcdroast works but when I try to record I get ...
Cannot allocate memory. Cannot get SCSI I/O buffer

I have 'visudo' d & have the entry ...
dave  dave_comp=/usr/bin/xcdroast

if I ...
bash-2.05b$ sudo xcdroast
Password:

(xcdroast:10023): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: bash-2.05b$

Which I guess is not unexpected :-) but from what I have read with the new kernels this is apparently the way to go due to added security in the kernel.

Can anyone point me in the right direction

Cheers
Dave
