Re: Grip -- Problem solved

2002-03-23 Thread Iraj Medifar

Thank you all for your responses. Problem is now solved.
What eventually worked in my case was, however,a little different from
was suggested. I had to deleted the entire contents of the /tmp, and
then run:

chmod 1777 /tmp
chmod 1777 /dev/cdrom

I worked!

Thanks again.

Then you have in /tmp a file or directory called .esd.  Delete that and
try again.

Thanks for the suggestion. Tried and here's what I got:

esd: Failed to fix mode of /tmp/.esd to 1777.
Try -trust to force esd to start.
esd: Esound sound daemon unable to create unix domain socket:
The socket is not accessible by esd.
Exiting...

Practically the same message as before. By the way, the system doesn't
appear to be broken at all. Users do log in and do anything they want
and don't complain about anything. Grip is the only apparent problem.

Must be _lots_ of stuff on your system broken.  Users can't log in, etc.

Do this as root:
chmod 1777 /tmp

then try again and post any errors.

Thanks. I did and here's what I got:

esd: Failed to fix mode of /tmp/.esd to 1777.
Try -trust to force esd to start.
esd: Esound daemon unable to create unix domain socket:
/tmp/.esd/socket
The socket is not accessible by esd.
Exiting ...

Well, is there a plain newbie translation of this?

Run it from the command line, and you'll see errors which tell you what
is wrong.

Grip

2002-03-17 Thread Iraj Medifar

Hi all:

I have used Grip for quite a while without a hitch.However,after some
recent file updates using Ximian Red Carpet (which I suspect must be the
reason), I can only use Grip when I log in as root. Would someone tell
me what file permissions, etc, need editing?

I use Suse 7.3 with both KDE 2.2.2 and the latest version of Ximian
Gnome. I have looked at /media and /dev files and noticed no apparent
problem.

Thanks.
