I cannot continue on and say, burn the audio disc, until I am sure all the wav files have been created.. Again to Nicolas: Doing some further testing, I actually get 'backup complete' messages when I rip in trakc mode tccat with dvdbackup.py. So i think whatever its doing is working.. Its only when trying to rip with subtitles that it hangs, something is reporting that its not done.. And bruno, if your watching ;-): DVD writing works.. However, menu status willnot change from 'stop' to fresh write again without first stopping.. I think this is to do with defunct-ness.. Anyone else running gentoo and kenrel 2.6.7? Can I you respond I'd love to do some testing with you...

[Freevo-devel] zsnes won't load a file from command line
I'm trying to run zsnes with freevo, and for the life of me, I can't get zsnes to actually load the games. Freevo calls it with the game as a parameter, but zsnes just opens up it's gui with the menu ready for you to browse and load a game. I even tried running zsnes manually under strace to see what was happening, and it never even *tried* opening the file. -- start strace -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ strace zsnes /home/ben/game.smc 2>&1 | grep smc execve("/usr/games/bin/zsnes", ["zsnes", "/home/ben/game.smc"], [/* 50 vars */]) = 0 -- here is where it sat after zsnes loaded. stat64("game.smc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=3146240, ...}) = 0 stat64("game.smc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=3146240, ...}) = 0 stat64("game.smc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=3146240, ...}) = 0 -- and this is after I opened the open file dialog open("game.smc", O_RDONLY) = 8 -- and here is it finally loading the game after I selected it. Anybody know what's going on? I even cut+pasted the command line from the damn help output and it did the same thing. zsnes 1.36 & 1.37_pre20040803 gentoo linux 2.6.8.1 kernel 2 separate systems, one w/ reiserfs and one with jfs -b begin:vcard fn:Ben Ford n:Ford;Ben email;internet:[EMAIL PROTECTED] x-mozilla-html:FALSE version:2.1 end:vcard smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature
