First, I neglected to mention that I did once try chown on the devices. I changed the owner of one of the optical drives from root to me (jjj), but it made no difference, so I changed it back I also tried launching the application from the command line as root, but also no joy. Regarding groups, 'id' shows that I am a member of group 24(cdrom). I su'd to a root prompt and did 'id' again, but root doesn't belong to any groups. Not sure why, maybe something to do with the fact that I changed the prompt to root but I am still logged in as jjj. I also neglected to mention that the two optical drives both work perfectly with all other applications and for all purposes. They even work with older versions of the program in question. There is some discussion on the forums for the application, where the developers have made it clear that it now requires the sg module and won't see optical drives with just the sr module. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
