On my first try to copy a DVD, it copies the original, but then when it tries to record, I get the following errors from debut output. System ----------------------- K3b Version: 0.11.7 KDE Version: 3.2.1 QT Version: 3.3.1 growisofs ----------------------- Executing 'builtin_dd if=/tmp/kde-afore/k3b_image.img of=/dev/hdc obs=32k seek=0' umount: only root can unmount /dev/dvdrecorder from /media/dvdrecorder :-( /dev/hdc: unable to proceed with recording: unable to unmount growisofs comand: ----------------------- /usr/bin/growisofs -Z /dev/hdc=/tmp/kde-afore/k3b_image.img -use-the-force-luke=notray -use-the-force-luke=tty -speed=4 This does not make sense. Any suggestions on how to fix the problem would be most appreciated DVDR is Sony 530A DVD+/-RW/+/-R with sony DVD+RW X4 DVDs. Art.
