K3B DVD Copy fails if I'm not root
 

Hi *!
I'm getting that error:
:mad:

**************************************************************************************************** *

:study:
When I try to copy a DVD with K3B as a simple user.
growiso is 5.13
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 53260 Jul 25 2004 /usr/bin/growisofs

If I do as root everithing is fine... may be it's due to permission problem? :confused:

I've noticed a quite strange call to growisofs: wat means
"-Z /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target1/lun0/cd=/dev/fd/0"
where:
/dev/ide/host0/bus1/target1/lun0/cd is my DVD writer... BUT
/dev/fd/0 is /dev/pts/3
is it correct?!? :tisk:

Thanks in advance,
Patrick :Pengy:

floppy drive
 

I am not totally sure, but I think fd/0 is the floppy drive. That's weird. What distro do you use?

Thanks AwesomeMachine... but I're wrong.
As I've said in my previous post /dev/fd/0 in my GENTOO is a symlink to /dev/pts/3

Really this is quite naife!... ?!?

Bho! ?

I'm open to correction on this but I think that by default, write permission to optical drives may be denied to any non-root user? I know that when I burn cds with k3b I have to be root, assumed this was the reason (think I read it somewhere ages back).

NO!... I'm able to burn CD-ROM as user... only DVD copy require root permissions!

Is a growisofs permission problem?!?
