Subject: X-CD-Roast Problem
Date: Sat, 10 Apr 1999 00:37:08 +0000
Hi,
I' new to Linux, but things seem to be going OK so far. :-)
I have a question regarding X-CDRoast, which is as follows:
I can read a CD (both Data and Audio), and store the resulting image in
my HD.
However, after writing the CD (which takes some time, and the 'Record'
LED flashes, so I assume that something is being written to the disk) I
get an error message to the effect that 'Some error occured'. This
message is displayed only when the 'fixating disk' operation is
happening. The writing phase then stops, and I now have five extra
coasters.
Any help would be appreciated. There doen't seem to be any mention of
this problem in the readme and help files, but then this software seems
to be implemented with only SCSI drives in mind.
My System:
AMD K6-2 300MHz,
64MBytes Ram
2 times 5 GB hard drives (Primary master, Secondary master)
1 32X CD-ROM (secondary slave)
1 6X CD-ROM-RW (Phillips 3610) (primary slave)
SuSE 6.0 (and I downloaded the correct binary from the X-CDRoast site).
I have recompiled the kernel with SCSI emulation enabled etc, and like I
say, I can read and store CD images.
Any ideas? Or is this a genuine bug that I should report to the author?
Thanks in advance
Steve

This one's a bit weird.
I've got Red Hat 5.2, XFree86 (3.3.3.1), Blackbox (0.50.4) and
GIMP (1.0.1) on my laptop. Everything has worked fine for
motnhs.
A few minutes ago, I had a bunch of applications going (Netscape,
GQview, numerous GNOME terminals, and GIMP with a bunch of files
open). My X session died, and I found myself back at the XDM
prompt. Not a big deal; it happens occasionally when I try to do
too many things at once...
So I logged back in, started GIMP up, opened a GIF, flipped it
to RGB, scaled it, flipped it back to indexed, went to save it,
and wham-o, there I am back at XDM. Tried again - same deal.
The images *are* getting saved properly - but immediately
thereafter, my X session is dying.
Anybody seen this before? Know what'd cause it? Know how to
fix it? I'm guessing that there might be a config file or lock
file that GIMP's seeing that it doesn't want to see, or isn't
seeing that it wants to see...

I have one argument for the power of the CLI
find . -name Makefile | awk '{print "mv " $1 " " $1 ".bak \; sed s/\\\"INCROOT \
= \/usr\/X11R6\/include\\\"/\\\"INCROOT = \/usr\/X11R6\/include\/X11\\\"/g \<" \
$1 ".bak > " $1}'
I can't do that from a GUI.
That said, GUIs have their uses.

Many distributions include a script 'adduser' or 'useradd', which does
all of the work. (RedHat has one.) OR you can do it by hand. The
minimum set of steps are:
1) edit /etc/passwd (and /etc/group, see below under 'gid'). Add a line like:
username:*:uid:gid:Full Name:homedir:shell
Where:
'username' is the desired *unique* username (8 characters)
'uid' is the *unique* user id number. Generally highest number + 1
'gid' is the group id. In general a gid of 100 is good. Look in
/etc/group for defined groups. Normal users should be in the
'users' group (100), or in some group of users that you create
for them. Eg. if you have a batch of kids and don't want to
get their 'grubby' paws on Mom and Dads file, add a line to
/etc/group like this:
kids::200:mom,dad
And use a gid of 200 for the kids' accounts. Same idea for
other 'classes' (groups) of users. (mom and dad are in group 100,
are here given access to group 200 -- this allows mom and dad to
spy on^H^H^H^H^H^Hmonitor the kids' files.)
'Full Name' The users full name. You can add various GECOS fields if
you must: office number, phone number, etc. On a home box this
is probably silly.
'homedir' The user's home directory, eg /home/username or
/home/groupname/username or whatever you like, depending on
disks and so on (eg, you can put the kids on their on disk
partition: /kiddisk/username or put a group of programmers on
their own disk: /foobarProjectDisk/username, etc.)
'shell' is the shell the user will get. /bin/bash, /bin/csh,
/bin/sh, /bin/tcsh, /bin/ksh, /bin/zsh. If you don't like
the user, you can give them /bin/true as a shell, which
blocks them from logging in. (This is useful is the user in
question is using the disk space via NFS or Samba (i.e. the
kids on their old WinBox on the house LAN via 'Map Network
Drive' and you don't want them finding 'telnet' and logging
in and poking around where you don't want them).)
2) Once you have edited /etc/passwd, create the user's password (as root):
# passwd username
You will be asked for a password and asked to repeat the password.
3) Then create the home directory:
# mkdir ~username
# chown username.group ~username
4) Now you might want put in some useful start up files: a .login or
..profile, a .cshrc or .tcshrc or .bashrc or whatever. .Xdefaults,
..xinitrc or .xsession, .fvwmrc and so on. You don't need *any* of these
-- if the user is knowledable, they can make their own to suit
themselves. If this is not a login account (shell == /bin/true), then
certainly don't bother.
That is basicly it. Oh, you may or may not want to have fun with
quotas, but that is a whole 'nother can of worms.

This is in fact not true at all. Actual factual studies that have proven
that command line users can almost always be more productive than users
who are using a GUI. GUI's are fine if you idea of productivity is
searching through menus, filling in dialog boxes, and clicking on radio
buttons, but think about this : I use the command line 95% of the time,
but if need be I can make use of pretty much any GUI to get something
done. You use a GUI at least 90% of the time, but could you get anything
done if you had to use the command line ?

It's not always a condescending attitude. Sometimes people who use Linux get
tired of hearing about how if it was just like Win* it would be so much
better. Better for who ? If you want to point & click, then stay with Win*,
because at least right now, Linux is not what you want, and contrary to what
a good many people think, they aren't doing anyone any favors by using Linux,
just like I wouldn't be doing anyone any favors using Win* .

I use the parallel port Zip Drive and it is really quite good. The newer
drivers have sped things up a fair amount and for me it works great for
occational storage and small backups. I'm not sure if there is any support
for the new 250 MB Zip drives, but I image that it won't be long before there
are drivers for it. The performance is supposed to be much improved as
well. Might want to look into that as another alternative.
