Initally sent from an unsubbed address - sorry for the repost. (Also Note: the CD-ROM is plugged into a second soundcard (Diamond Monster Sound MX300 - Vortex2). Can't play either sounds or CDs with that card active. -- guess there's a reason the OSS Vortex drivers are beta... i've run OSS with either and both cards active, no dice.) Hi. After a long hiatus from Linux, i've recently installed Mandrake 7.0. Everything's going very smoothly, EXCEPT: 1) i'm trying to use a program called GRIP (http://www.nostatic.org/grip) to rip/encode some music and it says it can't "open my cdrom drive". (though it actually can) 2) i'm trying to play CDs using GRIP, KCD, or the Gnome CD player. All open the cd, and play it, but none actually output sound. I have a SBVibra 16 using the latest OSS driver. All other sounds work, just not CD audio. I've tried with and w/o esd. Permissions for the relevant devices are appended later. I apologize in advance for the long-windedness and the dir listings, but i'm trying to give all relevant info/explanation. GRIP is configured to use /dev/cdrom, which is a symlink to /dev/scd0 (my SCSI cdrom drive) GRIP can open the CD for playing (though it outputs no sound - problem #2), but when I try to rip it gives me the "can't open cdrom drive" error - verbose reporting only tells me that "audio status is 21" when GRIP is idle, no additional information regarding inability to open /dev/cdrom. root can rip, but cannot play CDs (no sound output, though programs work). the permissions when i intially had the problem were (afai recall): [mromano@hrothgar /dev]$ ll /dev/cdrom lrw------- 1 root root 4 Feb 16 16:05 /dev/cdrom -> scd0 [mromano@hrothgar /dev]$ ll /dev/scd* brw------- 1 mromano disk 11, 0 May 5 1998 /dev/scd0 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 1 May 5 1998 /dev/scd1 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 2 May 5 1998 /dev/scd2 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 3 May 5 1998 /dev/scd3 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 4 May 5 1998 /dev/scd4 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 5 May 5 1998 /dev/scd5 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 6 May 5 1998 /dev/scd6 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 7 May 5 1998 /dev/scd7 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 8 Feb 16 15:52 /dev/scd8 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 9 Feb 16 15:52 /dev/scd9 I've chowned /dev/scd0 back to root, because i don't understand why my username should own the device (it didn't work that way either). I've also given everyone full permissions to the cdrom symlink and the /dev/scd0 file. I can't understand why with full permissions across the board the program cannot open the device to rip, yet can open it to play even with the initial permissions. The permissions are now: [mromano@hrothgar /dev]$ ll /dev/cdrom lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Feb 16 16:05 /dev/cdrom -> scd0 [mromano@hrothgar /dev]$ ll /dev/scd* brwxrwxrwx 1 root disk 11, 0 May 5 1998 /dev/scd0 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 1 May 5 1998 /dev/scd1 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 2 May 5 1998 /dev/scd2 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 3 May 5 1998 /dev/scd3 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 4 May 5 1998 /dev/scd4 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 5 May 5 1998 /dev/scd5 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 6 May 5 1998 /dev/scd6 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 7 May 5 1998 /dev/scd7 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 8 Feb 16 15:52 /dev/scd8 brw-rw---- 1 root cdwriter 11, 9 Feb 16 15:52 /dev/scd9 As far as output, [mromano@hrothgar /dev]$ ll /dev/audio* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Feb 16 15:50 /dev/audio -> /dev/audio0 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 4 Dec 5 16:05 /dev/audio0 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 20 Dec 5 16:05 /dev/audio1 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 164 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audio10 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 180 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audio11 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 196 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audio12 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 212 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audio13 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 228 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audio14 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 244 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audio15 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 36 Dec 5 16:05 /dev/audio2 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 52 Dec 5 16:05 /dev/audio3 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 68 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audio4 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 84 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audio5 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 100 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audio6 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 116 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audio7 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 132 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audio8 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 148 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audio9 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/audioctl -> /dev/mixer0 [mromano@hrothgar /dev]$ ll /dev/dsp* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Feb 16 15:50 /dev/dsp -> /dev/dsp0 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 3 Dec 5 16:05 /dev/dsp0 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 19 Dec 5 16:05 /dev/dsp1 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 163 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dsp10 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 179 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dsp11 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 195 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dsp12 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 211 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dsp13 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 227 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dsp14 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 243 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dsp15 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 35 Dec 5 16:05 /dev/dsp2 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 51 Dec 5 16:05 /dev/dsp3 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 67 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dsp4 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 83 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dsp5 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 99 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dsp6 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 115 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dsp7 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 131 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dsp8 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 147 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dsp9 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW -> /dev/dspW0 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 5 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW0 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 21 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW1 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 165 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW10 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 181 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW11 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 197 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW12 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 213 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW13 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 229 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW14 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 245 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW15 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 37 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW2 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 53 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW3 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 69 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW4 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 85 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW5 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 101 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW6 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 117 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW7 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 133 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW8 crw-rw-rw- 1 mromano sys 14, 149 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspW9 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Feb 18 00:35 /dev/dspdefault -> /dev/dsp0 ______________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group - http://plug.nothinbut.net Announcements - http://lists.nothinbut.net/mail/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion - http://lists.nothinbut.net/mail/listinfo/plug
