Hi Frank,
you have to add dvdr to your USE flags. This enables several libraries and function necessary to burn dvds. The flag dvd just tells Gentoo you have a DVD rom and want to read dvds - bei it data, video or music. I don't think emerge -u world compiles everything you need to burn dvds. Use emerge -uadv --newuse world and you'll be save. - -- Dirk Raeder I prefer encrypted and signed messages.
