K3b 0.11.9 won't burn CD's in with Kernel 2.6.4 on SuSE 9
Hello all. I keep getting and error from K3b that it CDrecord does not have permission to open up my cd recorder device. I have checked the permissions on the device file and I do have access under my user account. I know that when I complied 2.6.4 into my SuSE 9 distribution, I disabled scsi emulation. I was told that it was not needed to burn cd's anymore. I also think that I had burning working at one point without emulation enabled, but have since formatted my computer and don't remember for sure. Can someone tell me if this is possible and what do I have to do to get CD burning to work? Thanks -Gregory Olds

The unix permissions aren't used, suse uses resmgr these days, unless you use software you've compiled yourself and disabled it. Check with "/sbin/resmgr list" to see what you are authorised to do. If that doesn't show anything, su to root and run "resmgr login <username> :0", and then try running k3b again and see if that helps
It shows the following rw-- /dev/audio rw-- /dev/mixer rw-- /dev/dsp rw-- /dev/sequencer rw-- /dev/video rw-- /dev/modem rwsp /dev/cdrom rwsp /dev/cdrom1 rws- /dev/cdrecorder rwsp /dev/dvd rwsp /dev/dvd1 rws- /dev/sr0 rws- /dev/sr1 rws- /dev/sr2 rws- /dev/sr3 rws- /dev/scanner rw-- /dev/usbscanner rw-- /dev/usb/scanner rw-- /dev/usb/scanner0 rw-- /dev/usb/scanner1 rw-- /dev/usb/scanner2 rw-- /dev/usb/scanner3 rw-- /dev/usb/scanner4 rw-- /dev/usb/scanner5 rw-- /dev/usb/scanner6 rw-- /dev/usb/scanner7 r--- /dev/console It looks like I have read write permission. Am I correct? -Gregory Olds On Thursday 22 April 2004 12:27 am, Anders Johansson wrote:

There was a spat on the kernel mailing list quite a while back over the dropping of ide_scsi support, Linus & co vs. Jorge Schilling & co, recent kernels (2.6.3 and up) appear to have a fix provided by Linus. I gather that k3b back then did not support ide-cd, but I don't know if that has been fixed in the latest kde. I had burn failing part way through k3b and ide-cd, so I abandoned using k3b and installed the latest version (0.98alpha15) of xcdroast which works fine on both laptop and tower. In /boot/grub/menu.lst, I changed hdb=ide-scsi to hdb=ide-cd and also upgraded cdrtools to the dvd aware versions, on my 64-bit laptop using SuSE 9.0 x86_64 it's 2.01a18-dvd and on the 32-bit box it's 2.01a27. Something to consider if the issue with k3b isn't resolved. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce .... Hamradio G3VBV and keen Flyer Linux Only Shop.
I just installed xcdroast and it works fine so that shows the problem is with K3b. This would be fine for me if it wasn't for the fact that xcdroast does not burn image files. Hopefully this will be fixed. -Gregory Olds On Thursday 22 April 2004 02:25 am, Sid Boyce wrote:

It doe burn image files. It will easily write an iso image to a cdr.

"does not burn image files"?, you mean like .iso files?. I do that here regularly, just a few days ago I burned Mandrake Powerpack 10.0-CD1 and currently burning CD2. Last night I added the nvidia driver and ut2004 to a CD to install on my daughter's PC. I haven't yet found anything I can't burn using xcdroast. Fire up xcdroast --> Create CD --> Write tracks --> highlight the .iso file --> Add --> click the "Write tracks" tab next to the "Layout tracks" tab, then click on the "Write tracks" button at the bottom and off it goes.

Thanks, I got it. The program is just so different from K3b I assumed. Next time I'll take more time out to see how the program works. -Gregory Olds On Tuesday 27 April 2004 08:54 am, Sid Boyce wrote:
