Can anyone explain why when I attempt to use easytag as an ordinary user it hangs, at startup with no error messages, however, if I "sux -" into root mode and then "sux -" back to myself it works fine? I guess it has something to do with permissions but how do I find out what it is and how do I correct it? As normal user all I get is: Starting EasyTAG 0.28 ... Currently using id3lib version 3.8.2 ... Thanks. Eddie

Strange, I have been using easytag for a long time and have never had any problems starting it as a normal user. What is the output of: strace easytag Charles -- "All language designers are arrogant. Goes with the territory..." (By Larry Wall)

Thanks Charles for your response. Have you tried it in SUSE 9.0? I have no problems with SuSE 8.2 Here are the last few lines: open("/usr/lib/libpng.so.3", O_RDONLY) = 20 read(20, "\177ELF\1\1\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\3\0\3\0\1\0\0\0 \\\0\000"..., 512) = 512 fstat64(20, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=205920, ...}) = 0 old_mmap(NULL, 186748, PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC, MAP_PRIVATE, 20, 0) = 0x406e2000 old_mmap(0x4070f000, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 20, 0x2d000) = 0x4070f000 close(20) = 0 mprotect(0x406e2000, 184320, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE) = 0 mprotect(0x406e2000, 184320, PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC) = 0 munmap(0x406d4000, 54595) = 0 brk(0) = 0x81f3000 brk(0x8216000) = 0x8216000 read(0, It hangs at this point and goes no further.

No, I haven't purchase 9.0 yet.
It hangs at this point and goes no further.
Sorry I can't figure out what is wrong here. Have anyone else using 9.0 encounter this problem? Maybe it is time to fill up a bug report. You can try downloading the latest version (0.30), build it yourself and see if it works. Charles -- We are Pentium of Borg. Division is futile. You will be approximated.
