LinuxQuestions.org - another ripperX problem

hello all,

Ive just emerged ripperx, but when i run it i get "error code 14 make sure an audio disk is in the drive and that you are either runningt ripperX as root, are a member of the cdrom group......blar blar blar"

however it doesnt matter if i run it as root or not i still get the same error message, then i have checked dmesg:

Code:

Code:

BLACKBETTY cookie # dmesg | grep drive$

hda: Maxtor 6Y120L0, ATA DISK drive

hdc: PHILIPS DVDR1648P1, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

hdd: HL-DT-ST GCE-8523B, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

BLACKBETTY cookie # ls -l /dev/cdrom

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2006-09-22 16:37 /dev/cdrom -> hdc
