Hi all, Installed k3b-0.11.14 and dvd+rw-tools-5.21.4.10.8 last night. On firing up k3b I get a warning:
cdrdao does not run with root privileges It is highly recommended to configure cdrdao to run with root privileges to increase the overall stability of the burning process. Solution: Use K3bSetup to solve this problem I tried clicking on the K3bSetup button via k3b's GUI and from a konsole but they both cannot find the K3bSetup2 program that is called. I closed the warning message box and went ahead and burnt a data DVD. This is what was returned in the finished report in case it can help anyone: System ----------------------- K3b Version:0.11.14 KDE Version: 3.1.3 QT Version: 3.1.2 growisofs ----------------------- Warning: creating filesystem that does not conform to ISO-9660. /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd: engaging DVD-R DAO upon user request... /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd: reserving 2292080 blocks /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd: "Current Write Speed" is 2.0x1385KBps. 0.02% done, estimate finish Sun Sep 12 02:09:41 2004 0.04% done, estimate finish Fri Sep 10 16:37:37 2004 .... .... 99.95% done, estimate finish Thu Sep 9 06:49:59 2004 99.98% done, estimate finish Thu Sep 9 06:50:00 2004 Total translation table size: 0 Total rockridge attributes bytes: 3293 Total directory bytes: 0 Path table size(bytes): 10 Max brk space used 0 2292070 extents written (4476 Mb) /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd: flushing cache growisofs comand: ----------------------- /usr/local/bin/growisofs -Z /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd -use-the-force-luke=notray -use-the-force-luke=tty -use-the-force-luke=dao -dvd-compat -speed=4 -gui -graft-points -volid X101 -volset -appid K3B-DVD -publisher -preparer K3b - Version 0.11.14 -sysid LINUX -volset-size 1 -volset-seqno 1 -sort /tmp/kde-magnet/k3bJcICfb.tmp -rational-rock -hide-list /tmp/kde-magnet/k3b1FcLFa.tmp -full-iso9660-filenames -allow-lowercase -iso-level 2 -path-list /tmp/kde-magnet/k3bnABAbc.tmp The problem is that my mandrake 9.2 box cannot see any content on this DVD fromat all however when I put the DVD into my windows XP laptop drive all the files are there fine! Please, can anyone tell me what has gone so wrong here and suggest a way to get this DVD writer working correctly? Many thanks magnet :)
