ripperX

snoopy · 2004-02-12 05:40:25

hello, the only musik program I have problems with permisssion is ripperX
It's ok when I'm "root" but in users I've got this message

Make sure an audio disc is in the drive and that you are either running ripperX as root, are a member of the "cdrom" group, or other wise have appropriate permissions to access the CDROM device
Error: cdparanoia complains:
Unable to open cdrom drive

do I have to make a group "cdrom" and set the permissions in /etc/devfsd.conf ??
or something else...
thanx for the help

AFAIR I did not have to do anything like that. Are you sure that you told cdparanoia the correct CD device ?

snoopy · 2004-02-12 17:38:47

yes it should be the correct device because it's working under "root" privilege
and everything else is working fine in users mode (k3b, cd player, xmms, totem...)

do a simlink of the cdplayer dev to /dev/cdrom

i think you can also just change the device path in the config files.

anything solved so far? 8)

snoopy · 2004-02-13 19:35:31

thank you I've tried with no result
I'm checking my fstab right now, everything seems ok
may be I will try with another ripper to see if it's the solution
thanks again

just installed sound-juicer and got the same problem
root everything is ok,
user: could not extract this cd, couldn't open device, could not seek the tracks,
but cddb information is ok?

it really sounds like your fstab is buggered up in some way. you mentioned that you use k3b...that has been know to create entries in your fstab that can cause problems. if youpost your fstab then perhaops we can go from there.

(k3b may have also created an new group as well ... damn invasive software that it is)
