How does one allow security access from command line to the "/var/tmp"?
I have two machines with audacity installed and both show the same crash error (laptop with ubuntu gnome 14.04 32 bits and pc with ubuntu studio 14.04). None of those have ntfs partitions plugged or connected. After clicking OK on the "Register Effects" window, the program won't even open. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to audacity in Ubuntu.
