Hi all......
I am a bit frustrated at this. Would appreciate a little help. I use Linux on servers, but this is my first attempt to use it as a desktop. Would really like an alternative to Windows......
On every attempt to write a data CD, KOnCD immediately crashes and the KDE crash manager opens.
I have applied the fix offered in
http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/tbraza_ide_brenner.html
and the result has been the same.
I have done the fix offered in
http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/81_ide-scsi.html
and it solved the problem of the DVD and CD-R not mounting, but not the crash on write.
I have all updates from SuSE.
I have checked the KDE KOnCD bug list and found over a dozen bug reports on the same issue, all from SuSE rpm's, but no resolution.
I have searched this mailing list and found no help.
Notes: The Yamaha CRW3200E SCSI CD-R and SONY CD-ROM CDU5211 SCSI are on a Promise IDE-66 controller card. The Pioneer DVD-ROM DVD-105 is on a motherboard (ECS K7VZA) IDE controller. There seems to be no problem reading from these drives, except that the DVD-ROM will not read the SuSE 8.0 Installation DVD (A known, unresolved issue).

Problem solved....
KOnCD Setup default tries to write to CDROM, not CDRECORDER when both are installed.
I overlooked it because the Default value is greyed out.
Hopefully this will be fixed soon.
