Strange, I'm using K3B 0.11.20 here with cdrdao 1.1.9, cdrecord 2.1.1a01-dvd, dvd+rw-format4.10, growisofs 5.21, makeisofs 2.1 and haven't gone into root to burn anything. I usually burn the files from my slave drive, very seldom files on my home partition. Acccording to the menu, the command issued is kde, so what gives? Have I an old version, why don't I need to go into root to do this? The machine was running 10 which has been upgraded to 10.1 and now LE. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] HTTP://www.bbfordoonvalley.co.uk Surfing happily on Mandriva LE2005 -- 16:47:38 up 18:49, 2 users, load average: 1.20, 1.25, 1.19
