Hey, Had a cd I had to rip & encode to mp3. Of course, I had to update grip to do it, but with the update, I've a couple of minor annoyances I'm hoping somone here may know how to correct: 1. (Probably the easy one) Can't rip as user -- I mark the tracks, hit the Rip&Encode button, grip starts reading the track & ejects the cd. I think it's a problem with permissions, but I'm not sure. 2. As root, I start grip from the command line & get: GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed. I'm not stopped from running grip, & I get no errors while ripping & encoding. But I ~am~ confused by the initial error. What's up with this?
