Just installed my machine AMD64 and none of the gst- commands for a normal user. jonas@fry ~ $ gst-inspect-0.10 Error initializing: Error re-scanning registry , child terminated by signal jonas@fry ~ $ sudo gst-inspect-0.10 goom: goom: GOOM: what a GOOM! audiorate: audiorate: Audio rate adjuster icydemux: icydemux: ICY tag demuxer <snip> Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run gst-inspect-0.10 as normal user Actual Results: Error initializing: Error re-scanning registry , child terminated by signal Expected Results: See a lot of Gstreamer plugins
Created attachment 131017 [details] emerge --info
If I use this instead it works for a normal user jonas@fry ~ $ gst-inspect-0.10 --gst-disable-registry-fork
Created attachment 131036 [details] GST_DEBUG=*:5 gst-inspect-0.10 Debug info from gst-inspect-0.10
Forgot to mention the users are stored on an LDAP server and if I run it as a local user it works. They are all in the same groups, jonas@fry ~ $ id jonas uid=1000(jonas) gid=100(users) grupper=100(users),18(audio),19(cdrom),1002(plugdev),27(video) Creating a test users with the groups audio,cdrom,plugdev,video it works. I also have problem with gnome-volume-manager, it won't mount the drives I put in on my normal user, but it works on local user. I can however use gnome-mount -tvd /dev/sr0 to mount my cdrom, but not through the gui. Guess they share the same basic problem.
Solved it. Many thanks to MikeS on #gstreamer for help on this annoying thing. Problem was this: Bug #162355
