wont k3b or the other softwares work on RHEL , u can always use the command line

try 'man cdrecord'

sreedhartp · 07-04-2006, 07:28 AM

Yes i read about cdrecord. As mentioned above i enquired about any good software ie gui based or something like that. Cdrecord is bit difficult for me to handle and it cannot be used for writing movies also

k3B is as good as i've seen on any OS.

http://www.k3b.org/

You can get the source code and compile it, won't matter what distro you have aslong as you satisfy it's dependencies

The dependancies are the most difficult task to get off. Please give me where i can get all the dependancies, inorder to complete the instaallation.

Just because it's not GUI-based doesn't mean it's no good.

Sir,

I never say that cdrecord is not good. But iam a new user and not much used to Linux. ie why i would prefer a GUI based software. I search lots and not able to get a steady answer. Please reply.

Trying to download K3b i only get the debug tool and not the package. As iam not much aware, let me ask you is the debug tool equalent to the package or i have to get it from somewhere else.

Expecting your reply

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/k...r.bz2?download that's the link to the sourceforge mirror page for the source code

http://k3b.plainblack.com/requirements that is the list of dependencies you need

rshaw · 07-06-2006, 11:44 AM

something to consider. k3b needs a lot of libraries from kde. you're installing it on a RH system which has always been more of a gnome system. imho, it will be less work to install something less dependant on kde/QT.

Thank you for your reply.

The requirement site leads me to a site called "http://www.trolltech.com/" where i have to buy the package.

I thought that K3B is a package free. Can i get the dependancies free of cost

ethics · 07-08-2006, 11:35 AM

the K3B one? it works fine for me, you cna always go to their homepage and go to the requirements link.

K3B is free

sreedhartp · 07-08-2006, 11:41 AM

Please can you help me get out of this.
I have the K3b package with me. Which is a tar file. While compiling it stops with the error msg that QT>=3.2 is required. please help me solve the issue
