You probably have some how-tos in a subdirectory of

What kernel are you running? Hopefully not the 2.6.8. It's known not

I'm using 2.6.8-1-686 kernel image with gnome 2.8 desktop environment.
I've installed k3b with apt-get, then installed the programs requested
in the error message with apt-get as well, and everything works just
fine.

My kernel shouldn't have a problem, I'm running 2.6.7.
I'm at work at the moment. I'll submit a bug report for this when I
get back home later this evening.
I'm not sure what version of K3b I'm using. Under the suggestions of
