are you sure dvd+rw-tools is the RHEL5 version?
Yes, I am very sure dvd+rw-tools is the RHEL5 version. All I do is copy k3b rpm from RHEL5 Client to RHEL5 Server for DVD burn using. And I havd reinstalled OS to verify this issue for several times in 3 different platforms. They all got the same DVD burn failed result on RHEL5.
1. try burning as root 2. try as user setting in /etc/security/limits.conf hard memlock unlimited
sry, /etc/security/limits.conf: * hard memlock unlimited
Tried the 2 suggest methods, but k3b still pop out the same error message. k3b DVD burn test still failed.
Try this as root: ulimit -l unlimited k3b& It worked for me in FC6.
Run all command as root, And try to run "ulimit -l unlimited" before "k3b&". But k3b still reports the same error message. k3b DVD burn test still failed. (OS is RHEL5 Server x86-64)
1) Start K3b 2) Go to Settings->Configure K3b 3) Selete the Advanced tab in the Writing section 4) Activate "Manual writing buffer size" and set it to 4MB If you do that this should fix the error. Please let me know if it does. Because then we'd know how to fix it properly in K3b resp. have an easy workaround.
Hi Harald, You are great. This action really works. Now, k3b can burn DVD iso successfully. Thank you for your advice.
