I can confirm I have had the same issue. Switching to GnomeBaker has resolved the issue.
It is too bad I have used k3b for a long time and loved it. what would happen after k3b has finished burning the disk would not eject nor would it mount. after ejecting the disk and reinserting it I would get no response from the system. when attempting to mount the disk via "mount /media/cdrom0" the system would get cpu bound by the "hald-addon-storage". This would only happen after k3b had successfully burnt the image. I am using a plextor px-760a and similar specs to above (AMD64, 2G RAM) but have had this happen on my HP laptop and another system at home as well. If you can't get a crash dump from anyone let me know and I will set aside some time in the next week to run one. -- K3B is freezing system AFTER burning DVD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/119258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
