I did that and provided rpms for Red Hat 9 ( yum/apt repository http://rpms.xcyb.org/redhat/9/bleeding/ ) but since I'm not a cdrdao fan I didn't rebuilt the rpms for Fedora. :) Actually if I remember correctly something went a little wrong and cdrdao did not handle ATAPI devices very well so I dumped the idea. > > Scsi emulation is going away in 2.6, so everyone using ids-scsi needs > to get ready. > > Does anyone know how to set K3B so it doesn't use cdrdao at all? Actually you can't do that. Using cdrdao is hardcoded for some of the features but considering the fact that cdrecord supports [almost] all of cdrdao's features we should expect a future K3b version that will only use cdrecord. Anyway you can enable "Manual writing application selection" in K3b and you will be able to choose cdrecord for all the features that support both apps for writing. Mihai
