Ian- In general the cdrom device (usually /dev/cdroms/cdrom0, which is usually a symlink to /dev/ide/... ) will be assigned an owner of root, but most distros assign these device to relevant groups, such as "cdrom". Take a look at which group FC5 assigns to your cdrom device (use 'ls -l /dev/cdroms/', and then use ls -l on the file that cdrom0 points to). If it is a group like "cdrom" or "users", and the group has read/write permissions on the device, then you can add that user to the group and K3B should work. Let me know if you need help with any of the commands I mentioned. If FC5 didn't assign the device to a group, then we can help you add a rule to the udev rules to grant permissions to a group.
