Listmates,
11.1 w/KDE3 and k3b will not run for non-root. I have added the user to cdrom group, still no joy. Works fine in 11.0, but not 11.1. I recall a work-around that circulated about this a few months ago, but I didn't write it down. Any one have it handy? This was my problem once: http://redflo.de/tiki-index.php?page=Suse+11.0+Tips
my system misses the "+" sign discussed on that page, k3b can not even see the drive(external, mounted on usb), but nerolinux has absolutely no problem with it. k3b used to like too, a looong time ago. has anyone tried the "old" cdrkit, before the wodim "fork"?
resmgr schould change the permissions of the cd/dvd writer device so that you can write on it. resmgr does this if you login on your graphical environment (kde, gnome, ...). resmgr sets acls on that device (see "man setfacl" and "man getfacl"). resmgr fails, if your group has no name. This often happens if you use ldap or simply if you upgrade or move user accounts from one machine to another. Check this: type "id -ng". If you see a number, you have to fix that. If you see a name, then you may have hit another bug. Do a "su" and then type: "resmgr dump" to see if resmgr gave you some permissions. It should dump something like this: ... grant "yourusername" cdrom ... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
