In Redhat 8.0, is there a relatively simple way, short of giving out the root password to all, of allowing regular users to use the CD burner (in particular using one of the GUI apps)?
Currently, selecting xcdroast or gtoaster from the menu goes through consolehelper and pops up a dialog asking for the root password. This is fine for a stand-alone desktop machine, but for a true multi-user setup, this is a royal pain. I tried playing with the consolehelper pam files, but this resulted in segfaults for some reason. This is something IMHO that needs to be addressed by Redhat at some point if they are interested in the corporate desktop, since users who are used to using Windows don't want to have to jump through hoops just to do something they expect to be able to do easily, like burn CDs. Anyone have a good solution for the time being?
