[PLUG] CD playing/ripping
|
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*
