In the release notes, it says that k3b is not needed anymore and was removed. If you are using the 2.6.8 kernel, you must have release .526 as all previous had no support for CD, or DVD burners. Under release .526 it appears that k3b must be set to burn to a new device mounted as cdrw-dvdrw (I don't know if this will automount or not, it is brand new!) Try putting a blank media in the drive and fire up k3b, make sure it will burn to the cdrw device. Scott > Thanks, > > Fred > >
