Gnomad2 ?

Anyone here has a Creative Nomad player?

Gnomad2 has only worked in Kanotix & Mepis

Didnt work in Mandrake, Ubuntu.

It would say could not open jukebox another reason to keep Windows

what is this meant to be saying? gnomad2 will work fine on any distro, just might need a tiny bit of configuration, normally in terms of user level device permissions, which will probably be included in the documentation... did you read it?

Currently, if you're only prepared to accept things that work 100% out of the box perfectly... you might as well just use windows. meanwhile i'm currently using gnomad2 and neutrino to upload to my jukebox just fine.

I noticed gnomad2 works in all distro except on Kanotix it doesnt need root priv. , in the others yes

acid_kewpie:
what kind of user permissions did you have to mess with?
gnomad2 will only connect to the jukebox if i run it as root, and i'd rather not do that

They all work you gotta have root priv. so I open a root term and type gnomad2 from root term

I dont know if this will help anyone but after reading on the nomadness forums i found out that there is a 'hotplug.sh' script that comes with the source for the libnjb library...

you guys should try dling the source, running ./configure and running the script... it solved all my problems

apparently it sets up a profile so when you plug in your jukebox, hotplug knows to set the appropriate permissons

hope this helps someone
