Burning happily with linux
I honestly dont burn cd's that much.. who does... but i had to the other day and man was it hell, i ended up having to make an image with k3b and then sending the image over wifi to a friend and openning the image with deamon tools then burning hte contents to a disc.. k3b would not work, nor would gnome baker. today i fixed it though.. VICTORY IS MINE (in the words of stewie)..
pretty easy fix too, for the k3b fanatics, adding your self to the usergroup that k3bsetup uses to burn should be enough, but i did that and i still had some problems with the underlying app that kde uses (cdrecord), i ended up having to run this comand from the launcher (kdesu k3b) which is essentially runningk3b as root. after that kde worked fine.
now for gnome baker, this is what you do
um add your self to the root user group from the user admin dialog or you can do it via cli (as su: type adduser username groupname) then after that do
chmod +s /usr/bin/cdrecord.mmap
and with that gnome baker should be working.. my next test is gonna be with nero linux i'll blog the details of that experiment.
