Hey all. I emerged ogle from the portage tree, and have the following problem.

I click edit -> setup to set the program up, and the menu never pops up. If I go to file -> open disk, the program just instantly shuts down on me.

Any clues what could be wrong?

Thanks,
Matt

hmm I wonder what would happen if I were to create a symlink from /dev/dvd (the standard setting for dvd location in ogle) to /dev/cdrom1, where mine is.

That might do it.

Any ideas?

wohooo!


I think I'm no longer going to call myself a linux noob after figuring that one out on my own.

Apparently, when you go into setup you set which drive your DVD is, but since the setup is broken in this build og OGLE, creating a symlink from the standard ogle device to the actual one did the trick ;)
