         Problems with cdparanoia, or abcde to rip a CD as user

    ###################################
    ##############

    Problems ripping a CD with abcde as user:
    cdparanoia reports error, exit code 1.
    However, it works as root.

    Case: CD drives are ide, kernel with scsi simulation.

    ls -l /dev/sg* reports
    ownership by root, group also root

    Solution:

    1. chown g+rw /dev/sg*
    2. chgrp cdrom /dev/sg*

    These two steps have been enogh to make abcde work as user (user that
    belongs to cdrom group).
