k3b tells you that it doesn't work anymore and that you should use k3bconfig to remove the suid bit. But that is actually not true. For me it did not work without the suid bit set, but it works with suid bit set (just do dpkg-reconfigure cdrecord and chose yes). I am using kernel 2.6.12 from Debian. With kernels 2.6.8 and 2.6.9 it seems you really have to be root to burn cds. You could do the following: install sudo and use visudo to edit /etc/sudoers and add: username ALL=NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/cdrecord,/usr/bin/cdrdao then add in .bashrc alias cdrecord='sudo cdrecord' alias cdrdao='sudo cdrdao' Now all users can burn cds. What actually happens is, that cdrecord and cdrdao will allways be run as root. Greetings, Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
