I am trying to properly install graveman to my arch .71 distro. All appears well with pacman and the process closes normally. When I access graveman, as a regular usr, I receive the error message "can not save configuration file". However, it loads properly without the error message if I access the application from root. I realize that I can use it from root but I would like to learn/understand why there is a disparity between the results stemming from root and usr. I have added the group "optical" to my user name, but that did not help.
Thanks for your help.

Graveman saves the configuration file as /home/username/.config/graveman/graveman.conf
You might want to make sure permissions are set correctly for writing to those directories. If the graveman.conf file exists already, try deleting it and restarting graveman as a regular user.
Hope this helps.

TNX for the response. The file you mentioned is set up as follows -rw-r--r--. It is owned by root and belongs to the root group. How should it be changed?
Offline
chown -R username:users path/
chmod -R 755 path/
that should do it.

Sorry for the delay. Your suggestion worked like a charm! I see that we have granted read permission to group and users down the line. I would have thought that it was write permission that was required based on th error message. Guess I'll have to think about that one for a while.
Thanks, I appreciate your help. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Are you able to burn properly with graveman? I have never had a successful burn with it. It may be HW related for me, as my 52x only works <32x.

Hi! I have not tried a burn yet as I have been fiddling with permissions. I have to go out for a few hours but I will give it a try tonight and let you know the results.
