I can't reproduce it. Can you please attach k3b debug output when logged as root? And what says this command: ls -lH `which mkisofs` -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 541364 2008-05-28 02:08 /usr/bin/mkisofs* I am not currently at the machine that has the issue, will run as root tonight. NB: Googling indicates this is not an isolated instance, Ubuntu users are having the same issue. I am guesisng it is permissions related but on what, I don't know. Opps, Attempting to create CDs also results in the same error. How are you logging in? If using kdm/gdm, these use ConsoleKit to grant the correct privledges to local devices, like burners.

debug output
Sorry for the delay. This output shows the same action, creat a CD image performed as a std user, which fails, and as root which succeeds.
std user: Used versions ----------------------- mkisofs: 2.1 root: Used versions ----------------------- mkisofs: 1.1.8 Hmmm...I don't know why root uses different version... I have been unable to reproduce this on my systems. Can anyone else reproduce? I can not work out why two different versions are reported. I can not even find a mkisofs 2.1
This was a vanilla F10 install from scratch selecting KDE and removing Gnome from the packages during the install.
(agree-6)geustace: echo $PATH
/usr/sbin:/sbin:/SF/tools:/home/geustace/bin:/usr/lib/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
(agree-6)geustace: which mkisofs
/usr/bin/mkisofs
(agree-6)geustace: which genisoimage
/usr/bin/genisoimage
[root@agree-6 ~]# echo $PATH
/usr/lib/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin
[root@agree-6 ~]# which mkisofs
/usr/bin/mkisofs
[root@agree-6 ~]# which genisoimage
/usr/bin/genisoimage
In both cases /usr/bin/mkisofs is a symlink to /etc/alternatives/mkisofs, which is also a symlink to the same binary
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 2008-12-31 16:53 mkisofs -> /usr/bin/genisoimage*
OK, progress. My home directory was restored from my earlier fc8 install. I found the following in the .kde/share/config/k3brc file
[External Programs]
cdrdao default=/usr/bin/cdrdao
cdrdao last seen newest version=1.2.2
cdrdao user parameters=
cdrecord default=/usr/bin/wodim

I will rm this file and see if that changes anything.
Removing .kde/share/config/k3brc seems to have resolved the issue. There must have been some artifact in the file carried forward from Fedora 8. |
