I've the same problem as Dale: from my last upgrade of K3B 0.12.4a on KDE 3.4.1. Checked out your 1. & 2. above, Holly - also all permissions as suggested on every google ref. I could find! Still no joy. Until I find a solution for disk copying I use the following from the command line: cdda2wav dev=/dev/cdrom -vall cddb=0 -B -Owav cdrecord dev=/dev/cdrom -dao -useinfo -text *.wav or: mkiosfs -R -o cdimage.raw /mnt/cdrom cdrecord -v speed=40 dev=/dev/hdc cdimage.raw HTH Bogo -- Sent via KMail 1.8.1, & o/s Linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r10 -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
