So, this is 'logged' in the terminal window:
Code: Select all
(totem:3370): GStreamer-WARNING **: Failed to load plugin '/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstamrnb.so': libamrnb.so.3: Kann die Shared-Object-Datei nicht öffnen: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
But totem came up and all seemed fine.
Nothing was going on, as the CD was a music CD (ZZ Top Recycler).
So I hit "Play Audio CD" from the menue and all was dead frozen.
I will see if the CD would be read from other apps...
edit
btw: the server clock is UTC, no day light saving? Otherwise it is one hour in advance...
edit 2
Code: Select all
(totem:3370): GStreamer-WARNING **: Failed to load plugin '/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstamrwb.so': libamrwb.so.3: Kann die Shared-Object-Datei nicht öffnen: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden

Sorry, missed those initially!

Disregard the warnings. Nothing important there. If you want to remove them, just install amrwb, amrnb and libsndfile, but you don't really need them, unless you want to play amr files.

ok,
in the meantime, I tried to play the CD with Exaile.
I have 2 CD drives, both really old SCSI devices, connected to a SCSI adapter with Initio chipset (properly detected and running smooth so far).
When I tried to play the CD with either the Traxdata CDR4120 or the TEAC CD55S, no music is played.
Exaile brings a popup message: Could not open CD device for reading! .
Thats it. End of story.

Install grip and try with that.

Please run:
Take a look to which devices the cdroms link, probably /dev/sr0 and /dev/sr1. Then run:
And post the output

Will do so this evening!
What should be the outcome or what are you expecting to see?

Result for my pata cdrom:
Code: Select all
root[~]# ls -l /dev/hda
brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 3, 0 2009-11-02 18:11 /dev/hda
The group cdrom has read/write access. Perhaps your scsi cdroms don't belong to group cdrom, so you won't have access to it.
And type as normal user the command "id". It shows if you are member of the group cdrom.

and,
Asunder can read the CD nicely.
And can import from the CD...
So its seems not related to user rights/security, or?
<correction> import gets stalled at 50-60%, and output files are empty or contain just few bytes...
</correction>
btw: coming back to server time: when I am offline, the board here shows UTC.
When I log in, it changes to UTC +1 'summertime'.
Why that?

No, rights look ok. Try to play it with grip. But you have to know that asunder/grip as cd-rippers work in a different way than totem or exaile or most cd-player apps do. CD-rippers extract the raw audio information and play it back (they rip to wav directly to your soundcard if you like) while cd-players just play the audio data. Hmm... it could have something to do with dma settings now that I think of it...

Because you have configured it that way? You should be able to change that from somewhere in your board profile ("community settings" or something that sounds like that)
