A while ago, I mentioned that I had problems running cdda2wav as a regular user. While rebuilding cdrtools recently, I noticed that the build finished with the following warnings...
>>> Installing (1 of 1) app-cdr/cdrtools-3.01_alpha17::gentoo * >>> SetUID: [chmod go-r] /usr/sbin/rscsi ... [ ok ] * >>> SetUID: [chmod go-r] /usr/bin/cdda2wav ...

That might explain my problems. So I modified my kernel as below... <*> Second extended fs support [*] Ext2 extended attributes [ ] Ext2 POSIX Access Control Lists [ ] Ext2 Security Labels <*> Ext3 journalling file system support [*] Default to 'data=ordered' in ext3 [*] Ext3 extended attributes [ ] Ext3 POSIX Access Control Lists [ ] Ext3 Security Labels < > The Extended 4 (ext4) filesystem ...rebuilt, and rebooted into it. Still the same warnings on the build. So now it appears that I have to... > mount the fs with the user_xattr option (if not the default) > enable the relevant FS_SECURITY option (if configurable) Can someone point me to an example somewhere of how to do it? I prefer not to muck around blindly with unknown options in /etc/fstab BTW, I'm building cdrtools with USE="caps filecaps -acl -nls -unicode" if that matters. -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
