Owen, if you care about my advice : don't install K3b. Reason : by default it changes your /etc/fstab file, adding some more entries, thus messing the whole thing up. Although it seems possible to avoid that, I agree completely with Tom Brinkman who said something in the line of : anyone who writes an application that changes important system files should be taken out and shot. BTW : there are heaps of other, less agressive GUI's for burning CD's. To mention a few : XCDroast, Gcombust, Gnometoaster, CDBakeoven etc., etc..
