Re: Ogle 0.9.2 and SuSE 9.0 vs USB DVD-drive

Thanks for you reply.
There must be something important I don't understand about user
groups/permissions because I cannot get ogle to read the drive unless I
su to root. If I DO su, then I get different results with different
disks.
When trying to play "The Usual Suspects" I get this:

linux:/etc # ogle /media/sr1

WARNING[ogle_mpeg_ps]: dvdreadblocks only got 2, wanted 6
FATAL[ogle_mpeg_ps]: dvdreadblocks failed


Does this just mean that this disk is unreadable due to heavy
protection?



With "Bottom" (I borrowed it to test, ok!!) it seems to crack the keys
OK and returns:

<snip CSS cracking sucess>
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified

FATAL[ogle_vout]: Cannot open display

Does this mean that even if Ogle works properly, I cannot get it to talk
to my Geforce 2 with 3D enabled?

Thanks for your opinions, and for your time

Miles
