Hello. I have experienced this problem on and off for the past several months. But today it was the worst case. I am trying to burn a bunch of mp3 files to make an audio CD using k3b. I was able to so do for the first one after burning only a single coaster. The second one is still not done and I already have wasted 5 discs in the process.
When I click 'burn' in k3b, it starts to do its stuff but after a while it errors out. However, the disc still keeps spinning, the drive has its activity light blinking and I cannot eject the disk. Either I have to use a paper pin in the optical drive's eject hole (which makes quite a bit of racket due to the spinning disc) or I have to shut down the computer, power it off, and start it again. I have the following installed: ii k3b 2.0.2-2 ii k3b-data 2.0.2-2 Can somebody suggest what is going on here? The permissions for my optical drive are: $ ls -l /dev/dvd* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Jun 11 16:36 /dev/dvd -> sr0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Jun 11 16:36 /dev/dvdrw -> sr0 $ ls -al /dev/sr0 brw-rw----+ 1 root cdrom 11, 0 Jun 11 16:36 /dev/sr0 and do belong to 'cdrom' group. Thanks. PS: The error that k3b gives me is the following: ------------------------------------------ Devices ----------------------- TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S223C SB02 (/dev/sr0, CD-R, CD-RW, CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD-R DL, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD+R DL) [DVD-ROM, DVD-R Sequential, DVD-R Dual Layer Sequential, DVD-R Dual Layer Jump, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW Restricted Overwrite, DVD-RW Sequential, DVD+RW, DVD+R, DVD+R Dual Layer, CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW] [SAO, TAO, RAW, SAO/R96P, SAO/R96R, RAW/R16, RAW/R96P, RAW/R96R, Restricted Overwrite, Layer Jump] [%7] System ----------------------- K3b Version: 2.0.2 KDE Version: 4.6.3 (4.6.3) QT Version: 4.7.3 Kernel: 2.6.38-2-amd64 Used versions ----------------------- cdrecord: 1.1.11 cdrecord ----------------------- /usr/bin/wodim: Operation not permitted.
