I just installed SuSE 9.1 and when running K3b for CD burning, it warns on startup that I need to run cdrecord as root. The solution is to run K3bSetup, but I cannot find this setup program. Can someone offer guidance on how to run the setup?
IMHO there is no k3bsetup (SuSE 9.1)
there isn't; I think they pulled k3bsetup out and hard coded the settings. all you you have to do to run cdrecord setuid root is type the command (as root) chmod -s /usr/bin/cdrecord
Still not able to get this working, I get the error below when I try to burn or erase, etc. Cdrecord has no permission to open the device You may use K3bsetup2 to solve this problem Drive mounts/unmounts fine even from the desktop now and I have setup permissions according to what I've learned here and found on the net. columbus:/dev # ls -la sr0 brwxrwxrwx 1 root disk 11, 0 2004-04-06 09:27 sr0 columbus:/dev # ls -la cdrw lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2004-07-03 23:08 cdrw -> sr0 columbus:/dev # grep cdrw /etc/fstab /dev/cdrw /media/cdrw subfs fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,users,iocharset=utf8 0 0 I believe I removed the experimental subfs that Carl suggested following the doc below, all seems to work fine now with the device except burning with K3b because of these permissions. http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2004/05/hmeyer_91_revert_from_subfs.html Surely this is something that has been dealt with, does anyone have a external DVD+RW that works with SuSE 9.1 under a non-priv user? If so, what did you have to do? -- Robert
