Charles, "eject /dev/sr0" ejected the CD-RW and "eject /dev/cdrom" ejected the CD-ROM as you suggested. I still can't begin to burn CDs at this point in k3d. I can copy files to the audio project (in the bottom of the k3b window). I hit the "Burn" button. k3b pops up a "Burn CD" window which shows the Burning Device as "SONY CD-RW CRX100E (/dev/sg0)" with 1X Burning Speed. I check ON: "Simulate Writing", "Writing on the fly", and "DiskAtOnce". I then hit the "Write" button. A popup comes up which says "Please insert an empty CDR medium into drive" (followed by the drive name "SONY CD-RW CRX100E (/dev/sg0)"). I put the blank 74 minute CD in the drive. It gives me the option to Force or Cancel. I got to this point twice from a user (non-root) account. The first time, I hit Force and k3b crashed immediately. The second time, I wait to hit Force and in the terminal I start k3b from, I see the following message repeatedly until I hit either Force or Cancel: 'Cannot open SG device "/dev/sg0": Permission denied', but just sometimes.) After a few minutes, if I choose Force, I get the old message "Not all files have been buffered." I hit "Show Debugging Ouutput". I get a "Debugging output - K3b" window with absolutely nothing in it except an empty text window and an OK button (which I hit). The third time, I hit Cancel and k3b crashes. Thanks again, Tom PS--I'm confused why doing an "eject /dev/hdd" used to (before the KDE3.1 stuff) work...? --- Charles Philip Chan <cpchan@sympatico.ca> wrote:

Of course this wouldn't work, you are using SCSI emulation (you did load ide-scsi at boot time, right?), try:
eject /dev/cdrom
or
eject /dev/sr0
