People,
I sent this update hours ago. I had a typo and it bounced.

Maybe somebody can share some insights. k3b says that
everything looks good, I can punch up the right places to
read my DVD, but it refuses to burn. The first
diagnostic says that /tmp/kde-k3d (?) didn't have enough
room. This after the DVD was already read, which seems
a bit strange.. So I moved the tmp space to
/usr/tmp/kde-k3b.
Again, it read the entire disc but again refused to write
my blank disc. The diagnostics indicated that dd was
faulting. So to be certain it wasn't a space issue I
moved over to /storage/tmp/<> where I've got 93GB free.
BZZZZT. SAme thing.
I've chowned cdrecord and cdrdao suid . I understand
octcal better than characters. But I did a
chmod u+s on both binaries. If not right, what is thee
character and the octal (please) to chmod a binary suid??
I just build k9copy and will try it. (i Have a few other
questions related to this stuff, but first, I'd just like
to get k3b working.)
thanks,
gary
PS: the only new thing of note is that now k3b thinks my blank in
"medium-sized" and asks me to insert a double. I can't figure out
if there is anyplace to do any more configs. And my Memorex
DVD-RW discs hold up to 360 minutes. Nutshell, I'm wedged. Or
really, lost... .
