Chris,

First off, thanks for the beta.  Been looking forward to backing up alot 
of my recordings.  I tried the beta on yer site a couple of days ago, 
couldnt get it to work, so just waited till you posted this.  Went and 
got the latest version on yer site, and still getting the same 
problems.  Im running FC2 using Jarods Guide, atrpms.net, etc.  I use 
the install.sh, it does its thing, and then when I try to use the 
program, I get the following below:
