So all....All these postes is what I have done, since the start, on/with UBUNTU 10.04
So, I pulled out my internal HDD containing the 10.04 OS and put in Isadora (Mint9) OS.
I made myself this to follow: "NETMD: Mailing list: https://lists.fu-berlin.de/listinfo/linux-minidiscLinux Minidisc start: https://wiki.physik.fu-berlin.de/linux-minidisc/doku.php
German Wiki: http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Baustelle/NetMDLink: https://wiki.physik.fu-berlin.de/linux-minidisc/doku.php?id=installingonubuntu
Steps:Put in software source: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/glaubitz/linux-minidisc/ubuntu lucid main and deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/glaubitz/linux-minidisc/ubuntu lucid main
Install 'qhimdtransfer' and 'python-netmd' in package manager(To use python-netmd, you will have to open a terminal window (“Applications”→“Accessories”→“Terminal”) and use the commands netmd_list to list, netmd_download to download tracks to NetMD, netmd_dump to copy tracks from a NetMD over analog connections and netmd_upload to upload tracks from a standard MD with the MZ-RH1: )
To allow lsusb (not sure which is correct yet): sudo echo ATTRS{idVendor}==054c, ATTRS{idProduct}==0186, MODE=0664,GROUP=plugdev
/etc/udev/rules.d/netmd.rules
orsudo echo ATTRS{idVendor}==\054c\, ATTRS{idProduct}==\0186\, MODE=\0664\,GROUP=\plugdev\ > /etc/udev/rules.d/netmd.rules
orsudo echo "ATTRS{idVendor}==\"054c\", ATTRS{idProduct}==\"0186\", MODE=\"0664\",GROUP=\"plugdev\"" > /etc/udev/rules.d/netmd.rules
Permission will/might be denide: Thus go though root (Logging in as another user)
Root account: ROOT IN Ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo Enabling the root accountEnabling the root account is rarely necessary. Almost everything you need to do as administrator of an Ubuntu system can be done via sudo or gksudo. If you really need a persistent root login, the best alternative is to simulate a root login shell using the following command...
sudo -i To enable the root account (i.e. set a password) use: sudo passwd root Use at your own risk!Logging in to X as root may cause very serious trouble. If you believe you need a root account to perform a certain action, please consult the official support channels first, to make sure there is not a better alternative.
Re-disabling your root accountIf for some reason you have enabled your root account and wish to disable it again, use the following command in terminal...
sudo usermod -p '!' root(Please don't use this to become root, see further down in the page for more information about that.
sudo -i -u <username> For example to become the user amanda for tape management purposes. sudo -i -u amanda The password being asked for is your own, not amanda's.) "VOILA! So..... After this I went through the steps in Isadora and all went well!!!!!!! I had to inter netmd_dump as root though.... It still denied me access as normal user.
SOOOO.... Michael..... I am now going to go back to Ubuntu, try your new entries and see if it allows me in as a normal user (I have to say, in 10.04 I still couldn't even do it in root! This said, I have been able to netmd_dump in Isadora -Mint9-.... IT COPIED ALL MY RECORDINGS!!!!! But, another help from you!
It says that the default file is "alsa" great! Where the heck is that file at?

I have tried a few diffrent entries with and with out quotations and things... It still denise permission.
Yes, that command does not work the way Adrian wants it, because the output redirection is not established as root. Try the following two commands instead: echo "ATTRS{idVendor}==\"054c\", ATTRS{idProduct}==\"0186\", MODE=\"0664\",GROUP=\"plugdev\"" > /tmp/netmd.rules sudo mv /tmp/netmd.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/netmd.rules Regards, Michael Karcher
