How do you login? Via runlevel 5 (graphical login) or via runlevel 3 and "startx"?
The latter.
That will be the reason then. Try loggin in through the graphical login in runlevel 5 and see if the problem is still there.
I login at run level 3 here and have NO problem.
What's the output of "/sbin/resmgr list" run as the same user (and in the same environment) that is starting k3b?
Don't know.....have to try it on his "box."
Resmgr is there since SUSE LINUX 8.2. It takes care of giving access to a defined (configurable) set of devices to one (or more) user(s).
But it needs to be triggered via the pam module that your login method uses. This is the case by default for kdm/gdm (runlevel 5) but not for login (runlevel 3).
Try adding the line
session required pam_resmgr.so
to your /etc/pam.d/login file.

Yes.......that was going to be my next "try" - do surgery on pam.d's login. Thanks, Fred -- "The only secure Microsoft software is what's still shrink-wrapped in their warehouse..." (Forno)
