Hi list, i an encountering some strange behaviuour using gnomebaker &/or k3b. In substance they only work in "root mode" not as a simple user. For example gnomabaker, blanking a cd says me: ###### Cdrecord-Clone 2.01.01a03-dvd (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2005 Jörg Schilling NOTE: This version contains the OSS DVD extensions for cdrtools and thus may have bugs related to DVD issues that are not present in the original cdrtools.
