I agree - Crdao can't copy from ATAPI cdrom/dvd drives -- which is why K3b complains about a drive not using SCSI emulation. I have a DVD on /dev/hdc and CDRW on /dev/hdd -- using ide-scsi emulation these are turned into /dev/sr0 and /dev/sr1. K3bsetup has given these ownership and permissions as below: brw-rw---- 1 root cdrecord 11, 0 2003-03-14 13:07 /dev/sr0 brw-rw---- 1 root cdrecord 11, 1 2003-04-20 18:40 /dev/sr1 To make k3bsetup2 work I found I had to make a change to one of the options, then click on the 'apply' button. This is in administrator mode. K3bsetup also changes the permissions of cdrdao, cdrecord and readcd to 4710, ownership is root.cdrecord -- which allows users in the group cdrecord use these three utilities with root priviledges. And my user is in the group 'cdrecord'. There are symlinks from /dev/dvd and /dev/cdrom to /dev/sr0 and from /dev/cdrecorder to /dev/sr1.
I try burning a CD and *still* I get the error. Once again the message seems to say I have no permissions for /dev/pg1.
You've used k3bsetup successfully. What did you do? I notice that on the CD-RW drive the permissions are given as 666 root.disk whereas on my dvd drive they are given as 666 kmp.disk. Is this right? I can't see how you change them in k3bsetup. I thought then that perhaps kmp needed to be in group disk. I added disk to my groups using YAST but it made no difference to k3b.
I think you need to log out and back in to ensure k3b picks up the change in the groups. Hope this helps a little, Jason
