/dev/hdc is probaly setup with mode 660 (owner can read and write, group members can read and write, others have no access). /dev/hdc is likely owned by the 'disk' group (run 'ls -l /dev/hdc' to find out for sure). You need to add all user accounts that you want to be able to eject /dev/hdc to

I've burned many x86 bootable ISO images using OS X. Yes, you need to use Disk Copy to burn bootable ISOs in OS X. Open Disk Copy and press apple-B (or cmd-B if you like), or go to the middle (I believe running linux right now) menu and select Burn image It will give you a file dialog to

The best way to fix that is to check the permissions on /dev/ttya and put your user account in the system group that owns /dev/ttya. Do a 'usermod -G group_name userid' to add your login account to the group. You may want to run the program 'id' from the terminal after logging in to check if

Re: comparing x86 and powerpc laptops

2003-04-08 Thread Patrick Baltz
My personal opinion is that Apple laptops are great hardware, but the linux community using them is so much smaller that it was hard to get some of the things common on x86. It's much improved in the past year or so in my opinion. . However, you really need to look at the price/performance to

To the best of my knowledge, all network interfaces are identified as eth where is the order in which the kernel finds the device. So, you probably don't need the usb0 entry in interfaces. I'm completely guessing here, but eth1 is apparently either a virtual interface created to set up a poi

I believe you may not have created the device files for also. There is some script, named snddevices I believe, that must be run by the root user to create the necessary device files. You should be able to find it in the source that you compiled alsa-driver from. That would be my first suspi
