So now when I'm burning DVDs, I'll get within 3% of being done and k3b will stop burning and announce that I have no permission to access the drive. This isn't happening before the burning starts... it happens in the middle of the process.

Is there a way I can alter the source code so that it NEVER stops because of this? I don't really care what the computer thinks is the problem - there's no problem and it should never stop burning for this lame reason. Ever.

Please just show me the source code I need to delete to make this go away. Thanks!

Error messages can be misleading. This could be caused by a hardware problem. Can you try using a different DVD burner?

I'll give that a try. I wish I could at least see something in /var/log/messages or dmesg. When this came up there was no message in the system at all.
