If you start k3b from a terminal do you see error messages or does it still 
silently die after making a coaster? What drive are you using with it? Make 
model etc. how it's connected to the lap top...

IIRC someone else was having difficulty with k3b. Posted on the expert list I 
believe. He "got around" the problem by using cdrecord from 9.1 I think but I 
don't recall what the problem was or why that worked. Check the expert list 
for subject CD burning problems with 9.2. There's a whole thread there. Hell 
I'll even do it for you. <g>

Good luck.
