i had exactly the same problem. eveything worked fine after i added the following setting in k3b: options > Programs > userdefined-parameters > cdrecord dev=/dev/sg1:1,0,0
background: the key was the line: >Error trying to open /dev/sg0 exclusively (Permission denied) (where sg0 is NOT the CDRW but my hard drive which has permissions 660 root.root) k3b calls cdrecord with parameter dev=1,0,0 i assume(!) that cdrecord does a scanbus to guess the device. which as non-root gives me said error. if k3b specified the device node as i did the issue would be solved. so imho this really is a K3b issue. -- No way to select cd-recorder device https://launchpad.net/bugs/25380 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
