Can't run xine as user.

Hi,

when I run xine as root there is no problem. When I try to run xine as a user it won't finish loading. I can't see an error message, though.

Any idea?

Thanks,

Chris

Is your user in the video group?

Yes it is.

Is there any way of loading xine in a debugging mode?

Thanks,

Chris

You could emerge strace and run it on that. And xine-lib has a debug USE flag you could turn on. Other than that, not sure.

It works now. It seems that the first time xine is started by a new user takes realy long. I don't know why, maybe the user-specific files have to be written......or I need a better PC.

Thanks,

Chris
