Sorry to butt-in on this one but I have a feeling that all this is probably due to devfs. Devfs does always create the standard device files it has its own naming scheme. Take look at /etc/defsd.conf here's the top few lines. I believe that Mdk comes with devfs as default maybe its been disables or is not working properly? # Sample /etc/devfsd.conf configuration file. # Richard Gooch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 17-FEB-2002 # # Enable full compatibility mode for old device names.

Re: [expert] KDE K3b cdrw
richard bown wrote: Hi has anyone on the list had experience of setting up K3b, I can burn data files but not audio. selecting audio project reports no cdrd driver found when a burn is started, yet its found when data file are burnt. TIA richard bown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com Hi, I had this problem the fix was to run the k3b setup program from my user login. The config did not seem to "take" when I did it as root after the install. This prog does seem pretty buggy to me; if you start an audio project for example and select mp3 files after you have selected them there is no way to refer back to what you have selected. Still it does work for me. Colin Close Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
Re: [expert] KDE K3b cdrw
richard bown wrote: I edited out the previous post as it was getting long. Like others I want to dump using winxp and nero and K3b is very similar in style to nero. I'm trying to run K3b in Gnome, some seem to be getting success with K3B while others like my self ar'nt. So who's is running K3b with Gnome or with KDE3.1. The other files that K3b looks for and I cant find:- eMovix, tccat, tcdecode, tcextract, tcprobe & tcscan What function do they have? , and have those who have success with K3b loaded them ? If I can find a way of getting K3b top burn audio cd for mp3 files or even better vcd's, the old windows machine is redundant as win4lin ver 5 can handle all the other win apps I use TIA Richard Hi, If you mean burning mp3 files to wav (cd-audio) then I can tell you that is does this automatically. Just start an audio project,select some mp3 files and then just burn the CD K3b converts them automatically on the fly. Hope this helps.
