I have two cdwriters, one is as address sr0 ( a scsi device) the other sr1 (hdc) I have ide-scsi loaded as a module. Both devices have rwxrwxrwx permissions and I can read from both devices. Using cdbakeoven I can write to both devices but I can't use k3b or xcdroast on either device (even if I logon as root).
That's probably because those programs use resmgr, not unix permissions to gain access, while cdbakeoven presumably doesn't.
Anybody any clues?
I'm guessing suse 9.0, right? Please always mention that. Some of these things do vary between versions
You need to add
session required pam_resmgr.so
to either /etc/pam.d/xdm or /etc/pam.d/kdm (I forget which, try both). Then log out, log back in and try again Anders, Thanks, it is v9.0. I looked in /etc/pam.d and I only had a xdm file no kdm. The xdm file already had the pam_resmgr.so in it so I created a kdm file and added that line but it didn't work.
Also, on a recent KDE upgrade to 3.3.0 the kdm stopped working so I switched to gdm but used a kde session. Using your clue above I upgraded to 3.3.1, switched back to kdm, restarted the X-Server logged in via KDM and hey-presto k3b and xcdroast work. Now I have a seperate problem.... When I reboot (with kdm) the booting hangs just at the starting SMB section. My workaround is to boot into init 3, then switch to init 5. I have no idea why this happens. Phil
