I am having the exact same problem here with the current version of Red Hat. The funny thing is that everything was working fine before with Seawolf (tweaked a lot before trying, it's true)... As root, rips work fine, but as user it just tries, fails and skips to the next song and so on. It says that "-v" will give more info, but I don't really think so (this is with -v) : [...] In RipNextTrack First checked track is 1 Ripping away! Drive status is 4 audio status is 17 Ripping track 1 to /home/dude/mp3/Armand van Helden/2 Future 4 U/Mother Earth.wav Calling CDPRip Unable to open cdrom drive; -v will give more information. Rip finished Rip partial 0 num wavs 1 Next track is 1, total is 12 Check if we need to rip another track In RipNextTrack First checked track is 2 Ripping away! [...] The drive is an IDE DVD/CD-RW in a laptop so I'm also using the IDE-SCSI and access my drive through /dev/scd0 (which /dev/cdrom points to). If anyone has ideas...
