How can I setup k3b so that I dont have to run it as root?
Currently I cannot burn anything unless i run
# kdesu k3b
I know it must be some kind of permission issue on the device maybe, but how
can I sort this?
Many thanks.
What version of fedora core are you using? If it's FC2, there was a problem
with the kernel for user level cd burning. You will have to be root to do it.
That problem was fixed with FC3 kernels.
With no knowledge of a FC2 kernel problem, I solved the problem of K3b
insisting on a root user for CD writing. Make sure cdrecord
permissions are set to give users write privileges. But then, I am the
only user on my system.
