Hi, attemting to create a BD-RE disk (Re-recordables are nice, sine non-RW media don't grow in my garden ;-) Yeah. A BD-R tree would be a fine thing.

Re: [gentoo-user] k3b burning BD-Disk pretends to fail at 99.99%
Hi, maybe the problem is when closing the session or writing some kind of lead- out, or the like. The problem is that the CLOSE TRACK/SESSION command is appropriate for the end of burning BD-R, only if it is unformatted or if it is formatted to SRM without Pseudo Overwrite. As soon as it is formatted to Pseudo Overwrite, the command is inappropriate, which the burner indicates by the ILLEGAL REQUEST error code (which one would see if K3b would not swallow it). The bug of growisofs is that it formats the BD-R to Pseudo Overwrite but omits to memorize this new state. If the BD-R is already formatted to Pseudo Overwrite when growisofs inspects it, then its state gets memorized and the inappropriate SCSI command is not issued. My patch proposal just sets the memorizing Pseudo Overwrite flag after the medium has been formatted. So growisofs treats it the same as if it had already been formatted when growisofs first inspected it. This avoids the error. Have a nice day :) Thomas

Hi Thomas, this problem can either be fixed by patching growisofs as you suggest, or by changing k3b to use cdrtools in preference to growisofs - not sure if this can be done with a USE flag. The latter seems more reliable to me, because Joerg keeps his code up to date, but I don't know enough to make a case for either option.

Hi, michaelkintz...@gmail.com: Hi Thomas, this problem can either be fixed by patching growisofs as you suggest, or by changing k3b to use cdrtools in preference to growisofs Joerg will heavily object, but my sincere opinion as technical expert on this field is that growisofs is the better choice. I mentioned in this thread what i dislike about it. Joerg added the fact that it is unmaintained since 5 years. But aside from that, i cannot point to any reason why growisofs is an inferior burn backend compared with my own software which i try hard to make as good as possible. Joerg keeps his code up to date Yep. Joerg and i seem to be the only active developers on this field. But there has nothing new happened with optical media since Andy left the playground. If not for this BD-R bug, nobody would care that growisofs is unmaintained. Currently i have the impression that in most distros the whole topic of optical media and their filesystems is unmaintained or at least under-maintained. cdrecord on DVD and BD suffers from Joerg's peculiar way to read the specs (and to not disclose which paragraphs exactly, when his understanding is brought into question). His and my understanding of MMC seem fundamentally incompatible. Obviously Andy Polykov read the same specs as i, when he created dvd+rw-tools. If people need technical support about growisofs, then i am ready to help. I am subscribed to cdwr...@other.debian.org which is the official place to submit bug reports and requests for dvd+rw-tools. Have a nice day :) Thomas

Hi, Okay, then, is your patch necessary when using this command: growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/sr0=image.iso with a DVD? No. I do not know about any growisofs flaws with DVD. (Besides its -use-the-force-luke magic which is reserved for those who read growisofs.c additionally to its man page.) Because I don't own any BluRay discs, or players. The bug fix has an effect only if you submit a blank BD-R. It is necessary if one cannot live with growisofs reporting error and returning a non-zero exit value. There are rumors that the inappropriate command spoils the burn. But this is not very plausible because the Pseudo Overwrite burn is already done when the error happens. I do remember that in the past I've experienced a similar error where it appeared to me that growisofs seemed not to close media, but the data on the DVD was fine, so I didn't pursue it. That must have been something else. Closing the medium should indeed happen with -dvd-compat. But of course one cannot close DVD+RW, formatted DVD-RW, DVD-RAM, or BD-RE ... and obviously not Pseudo Overwrite BD-R. dvd+rw-mediainfo would have told what's up with the medium after the burn. (It helps to have a copy of MMC specs at hand when reading its output.) My offer holds: I am willing to investigate any burn problems. Be it with my own software or the one of others. (I must restrict my offer insofar that i will not waste lots of expensive one-time media for mistakes which i did not make myself.) A typical first experiment will be to use my own software with the problematic combination of burner and medium. This shall not mean that in the end i will urge people to switch to my stuff. The goal will be to find out what's wrong with the user's situation and how to possibly fix it. Have a nice day :) Thomas

The OP reports: I compared each and every file on the disk with its original, but yould not find any problem. This matches Andy Polyakov's diagnosis that the media are ok afterwards. The flawless readbility, the timepoint of failure, and the i/o error reported by K3b, alltogether make me believe that it is the 5 year old bug. Of course, everybody has to decide by himself where to invest test media. My proposal is to fix and test growisofs. - (Joerg and i know each other from many encounters in the past.

With some fantasy you can see the weirdest things in the mist. (Franquin via Gaston Lagaffe) It is not impossible that a drive refuses on one way of burn preparation while still working with a different one. One might get lucky with the defaults of one burn program and experience failure with those of the other burn program. But normally a drive is on the edge of failure if it behaves that way. The luck may turn quite quickly then. joerg.schill...@fokus.fraunhofer.de wrote: Note that I already mentioned that growisofs is a layzy written program I would compare its style rather to BASIC than to assembler. :)) But that does not influence its SCSI standards compliance. joerg.schill...@fokus.fraunhofer.de wrote: has many places where is returns the unly slightly modified result of a SCSI mode sense operation while running a SCSI mode select operation.

This is in transport.hxx where Andy composes a mode page 05 for DVD-R[W]. I read in SPC-3 6.9.3 that the drive shall throw error if one attempts to change a non-changeable value. But not that the drive is allowed to return values which may cause error if sent back to the drive. So if the code of transport.hxx is wrong, then not because it would send back values which it got from the drive, but because it does not inquire by PC=01b whether its self-constructed values are allowed to be changed.

Don't think so, since the media I've burnt were 10G and 22G large. What growisofs definitely causes with formatting the media is to make it slow. Growisofs is not a cleanly writen application. It frequently returns slightly modified mode data to the drive that was fetched before from the drive. The way this new data is created is in conflict with the SCSI standard. Some drives still accept the data others do not. In some cases, sending back identical data will even switch the drive into unwanted behavior. A quick statement could be: It was written in C++ but looks like assembly code Note that there was no update since 5 years and several people reported less problems when using cdrecord instead of growisofs.

It is interesting that there is no error message in the output from your

k3b should usew cdrecord instead of growisofs in case that cdrecord is
installed. Is cdrecord missing or why did k3b use growisofs?
Did you explicitely try cdrecord?

I recently got an update with a USE flag change for k3B: hal Maybe your's is off? From what I remember, K3B uses either D-Bus or, I believe, HAL to detect drives. So if HAL (or D-Bus) is not working properly, K3B won't detect the drive. Also, I have a vague memory (warning! this may be totally wrong!) that you may need the plugdev group as well, for the detection to work properly? Maybe? However, my K3B (stable on 2.0.1-r1) doesn't have a hal use flag, but it appears the latest (unstable on 2.0.2-r1) does. Jake Moe

Hello, I was recently having similar issues with a computer I picked up from my university's surplus that I put a fresh Gentoo install on. The issues went away after I restarted dbus, a la: $ /etc/init.d/dbus restart It may not fix your issues, but it did make mine vanish.

[gentoo-user] k3b doesn't show in KDE 4's menu
I installed k3b (a KDE 3 application) but it doesn't show in KDE 4's application launch menu (aka Start menu). Can this be seen as a bug or am I supposed to create the desktop entry myself?

If the .desktop file is missing it is a bug. You don't have to do it by hand (you can add k3b manually - right click on the menu button..)

Thanks for suggesting a re-reading, Daniel. Could you please provide the solution? I have the same problem and the thread is all but clear to me. In my case, the solution was to remove the (incorrect) LANG and LC_ALL assignments I had edited into /etc/profile. The 02locale and locale.gen files did the job correctly. I tracked this down by putting a lot of debugging stuff in the various shell startup files. They looked like this: [ -e /etc/conf.d/D ] echo This is /etc/profile\; LANG is $LANG\; LC_ALL is $LC_ALL ... [ -e /etc/conf.d/D ] echo End of /etc/profile\; LANG is $LANG\; LC_ALL is $LC_ALL And I can switch them on and off by creating/rm-ing /etc/conf.d/D. This showed me where the variables were getting values, and what the values were. By the time I was done, I had them in ~/.bashrc ~/.mybashrc (you may or may not have this file) ~/.bash_profile /etc/profile /etc/bash/bashrc They are still there, but inactive since I have deleted /etc/conf.d/D (a file of my own creation). If you don't use bash, you'll have to design your own variant of this approach. ++ kevin -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD

I did, just as an experiment. It made no difference to the main issue: no locale is defined for programs started from KDE menus, and K3B is complaining about the resulting ASCII (1968) definition. I'd rather that the locale-gen worked, but that's a side issue. Do you have something like LINGUAS=en in /etc/make.conf? Yes, it reads LINGUAS=en fr de es pl Because while I don't ordinarily use other languages, I have in the past had to edit some i18n files for a web page of mine. See http://hex.kosmanor.com/hex-bin/board, which currently speaks English, Polish and Dutch. You can try to use the unicode charset [1] in /etc/env.d/02locale, maybe k3b wants this. LANG=en_US.utf8 LC_ALL=en_US.utf8 I also suggest going through the guide again and read thoroughly, often there is only a tiny mistake a typo or something which makes things fail.

You can try to use the unicode charset [1] in /etc/env.d/02locale, maybe k3b wants this.

On Wednesday 05 March 2008, Philip Webb wrote: Can anyone explain why K3b demands audio support, but Xcdroast doesn't ? k3b supports audio CD ripping and burning. This is independant of audio support in your kernel, which basically means how to make sounds come out the speakers. k3b's support allows it to understand the data on an audio cd The packages you list are hard coded into the k3b ebuild, but nothing in the sources implies that audio cd support is mandatory.Maybe ask the devs why they did it this way? -- Alan McKinnon alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] k3b creating video DVD error
Hi all, I only just tried k3b for the first time (under gnome :) to try and make a video dvd. I'm using some vob files I captured on a DVD camcorder, and burning to an iso. However, when I click burn, I get this error message: The project does not contain all necessary VideoDVD files. and the verbose output is below. There is enough space on the filesystem, and I have rw access to the location I'm trying to burn to. Can anyone offer some insight into why its not working?

Re: [gentoo-user] K3B - cdrado without root privileges [SOLVED]
Thank you all for your help. I was just a little confused about the message, because as holly said k3b works fine even with this message.

-Original Message- From: Holly Bostick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 03 January 2006 08:31 To: gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] k3b access rights I don't understand what your problem is, sorry. But I think that's because you haven't actually said what your problem is, or whether it's with K3b or general use of the drive. Apologies, I was so immersed in it all that I _naturally_ expected everybody else to be able to read my mind! You don't mount the cd/dvd in order to write to it with K3b (or whatever); iirc the application uses raw device access, but whether that is correct or not, you unquestionably don't mount the device to use a burning program. Nor do you mount the drive in order to play an audio CD (which also uses raw device access, which requires that the device *not* be mounted). Thanks, I think I might have mounted the disk and then tried to delete something on it. Second, for general use (video viewing, game playing, etc) what you most likely want is the users (note the s at the end) option, which allows any user to mount/unmount the drive, as opposed to just one: from man mount: user Allow an ordinary user to mount the file system. The name of the mounting user is written to mtab so that he can unmount the file system again. This option implies the options noexec, nosuid, and nodev (unless overridden by subsequent options, as in the option line user,exec,dev,suid). users Allow every user to mount and unmount the file system. This option implies the options noexec, nosuid, and nodev (unless overridden by subsequent options, as in the option line users,exec,dev,suid). So if I want a single user at-a-time to be able to mount the DVD drives I just enter user? From memory I think I had concluded that adding the uid was necessary for CDROMS and NTFS/VFAT fs partitions, otherwise it was asking for fs type, or was coming up with only root can do that type of errors. Need to try this again and make some notes. The problems that I have are probably two-fold. The generic one is that I am not sure I have the correct mount options in /etc/fstab and that I created the /mnt/cdrw, /mnt/cdrom1 etc. mountpoints with the correct access rights. What are the default mount options and /mnt/mountpoints access rights for DVD writer and DVDROM? Ditto for NTFS? The specific one is that I tried to delete a folder from a re-writable CD: a)while I was browsing it in konqueror and b)using k3b, but it couldn't do it. I'll try again when I get home to see if it behaves as expected after I ensure that it has not been mounted. -- Regards, Mick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

What are the default mount options and /mnt/mountpoints access rights for DVD writer and DVDROM? Ditto for NTFS? Sorry, I don't use NTFS, and I only have one user (me)-- and I don't use /mnt/cdrom or /mnt/cdrw (or /mnt/ anything other than the self-created /mnt/iso for mounting loopback images)-- my DVD is mounted to /media/(cdrecorder) by udev (afaik it's udev that does it). I take it you don't use udev? Or are you just under the impression that you have to have /mnt/something (I had this problem for the first bit after I switched)? In general use, /mnt./blah is kinda deprecated. However, I do know that enabling writing to NTFS partitions in the kernel is not recommended, unless you meet very specific criteria (as the kernel driver can only overwrite a file of the exact same size to such a partition, making editing pre-existing files pretty much impossible; no idea about creating a new file). UID/GID is (kinda) necessary for VFAT partitions, only to deal with the possible ownership issues; if you specify the UID/GID of the expected owner, that UID/GID can/will have write privileges to the partition (automatically if UID, when specified if GID), which is useful for shared partitions across multiple distros or OSes and sometimes for multiple users on the same OS. But you may not need any given partition to have write privileges. If, for example, the partition is only full of music files that only need read privileges to play, which you'll almost always have when mounting a partition. But if you wanted to edit the ID2/3 tags of the music files, you would need write privileges. But how many users on your system are actually likely to be editing such tags-- given that said users could also destroy said files with a Windows virus if the virus targeted MP3s and the user had write privileges to the partition containing them? As the admin, you are responsible for knowing what accesses your users actually need, and balancing that against the dangers of giving them such access. It really depends on what your specific setup needs, which we cannot know. The specific one is that I tried to delete a folder from a re-writable CD: a)while I was browsing it in konqueror and b)using k3b, but it couldn't do it. I'll try again when I get home to see if it behaves as expected after I ensure that it has not been mounted. Um, hello, this is not WindowsXP. We do not packet-write (that means treat a CD as if it was a floppy and write to it directly from the file manager). You can (kinda) do this, if your kernel is set up to enable packet-writing, but honestly that functionality is quite unstable and I wouldn't use it even if I did like packet writing (which I do not and never have in the some 6 to 7 years since it was introduced). Basically what would need to happen in the real (Linux) world, without packet writing, is that a CD burning program would have to create a temp ISO of the files on the CDRW (which afaik it would have to be) without the folder that you intended to delete, erase the current contents of the CDRW and then rewrite the CDRW with the new ISO (which would essentially delete the folder). But I could be wrong, as I don't use -RW media anymore (and this is one of the reasons why). In any case, I'm not completely sure that your expectations are reasonable for the environment. Certainly expecting Konq to delete a folder on a CD is unlikely to happen (because the device must be mounted for Konq to see it, and the device is not going to be mounted read-write under any circumstances; this is why, afaik, the kernel only marks the

Re: [gentoo-user] K3b and CD copy [solved, mostly]
Hi again, Well, I have KDE 3.5 installed now. K3b still did not work though. So, I keyworded the little puppy so it would get the latest. It did, now it works. I click the tools thing, then click copy CD and the windoze pops up. I click start and we are burning CDs. I do get a crash signal when I close it though. Not sure what is up with that. Next release I guess. :\ KDE 3.5 is pretty cool. I did a back-up of some stuff first but I don't see that anything was lost. All my email is still here. That is good since I have a lot. I did notice that after doing a revdep-rebuild, there is a lot of broken libraries. I let it do its thing but they are still broken. May do a emerge -e world and go take a nap. I upgraded gcc earlier but most of them are related to hal I think. I did a emerge -e system twice but maybe once more will do the trick. Is there a way to tell to do a world but skip the stuff in system that is already done? Just curious. Anyway, K3b is solved now. Moving on to the next fix.
