I think I answered this for somebody else yesterday. do an ls-l on your cdrom you will find that it is a link to some other filename and the other name does not have the necessary permissions. whatever name the file points to (--) do a chmod on that file (booted as root, of course) to at least 444.

Re: [expert] CD Audio more stuff
Something to add to all my word gravel... Grip also accommodates Gogo Encoder http://homepage1.nifty.com/herumi/gogo_e.html . This one is freakin' quick! I'm getting 7.5x encoding speed on a 333Mhz Cel. Note: this is with psycho-acoustics turned off and a rate of 128kbps. Gogo is quite similar to Lame because they were one at one time but have forked since; Lame with a propensity towards quality and Gogo towards speed.

CDDA2WAV is much faster but if you want some quality-control, use Paranoia. As far as mp3 encoders... LAME http://www.sulaco.org/mp3 is somewhat fast and it's capable of VBR encoding (CBR 128Kbps is 2.5x speed with fast mode on. But VBR encoding is only 0.8x speed using a 333Mhz Celeron). Bladeenc http://hem.bredband.net/tord is another one to use. Then there's Xing ($20) http://www.xingtech.com/, it's fast as heck (approx. 4.5x speed w/ 333Mhz Cel) and is also able to do VBR. To piece the ensemble together, check out Gripper http://www.nostatic.org/grip . It will run all of the above along with having cddb. I like how it can shrink down to a small size with a handy "LCD" progress indicator. Then there's RipperX http://www.digitallabyrinth.com/linux/ripperX/ , it's not as pretty as Gripper but it does have a few more buttons to push for your encoding variables. Gripper doesn't including track numbers when auto-naming mp3 files as a default... all you have to do is add %t into the configuration. Both of them will auto-make directories for you but RipperX only goes one level deep. I recently spoke to Realnetworks and they told me that there are no plans for a Linux Realjukebox. Whether or not that trues and if anyone cares And finally, Knapster http://knapster.netpedia.net/index.html is pretty handy in locating tons of MP3s for you to 'sample' and also let others 'sample' yours.

Well, AFAIK, there are programs you're going to have to download and install. AFAIK, there is nothing INCLUDED in Mandrake from ripping CDs to MP3s. Take a look at BladeEnc for one. Also, XMMS can rip CDs to WAV files and from there you can compress 'em. John

As we like to say "It's in there". The program grip will accomplish ripping and encoding. It's on the Mandrake-Linux cd-rom. grip-2.9-3mdk.i586.rpm Larry

Yes, you need an grabber (e.g. cdparanoia) and an encoder (e.g. lame or bladeenc). But I'm using also a frontend, named krabber, all works fine. bye micha -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: PGPfreeware 5.0i for non-commercial use MessageID: PM7Tt3UDFuu6YROr17LAVOUBbUKDWW6T Comment: iQA/AwUBON8FgK0WaNywAzNIEQLsMgCgrIWYiTl+zr/pZHrz5jsNJiPyS0cAmwYl xNH9A90+nVH3ryDfIPUTX2WH =xuwh -END PGP SIGNATURE-
