k3b won't recognize my Plextor
 
I just setup slack 9.1 and I love the package tool. I downloaded the k3b-0.10.1-i686-1.tgz file for slackware and tried to run the K3bsetup. I see that the device list is empty so I try to add a device. It pops up with /dev/ so I add sr0 and it tells me 'Could not find /dev/sr0'.

Anyway, I have lilo using the append="hdc=ide-scsi" and I can see the drive when I do 'cdrecord -scanbus'
Code:

Cdrecord 2.00.3 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2002 Jörg Schilling
Linux sg driver version: 3.1.25
Using libscg version 'schily-0.7'
scsibus0:
        0,0,0    0) 'PLEXTOR ' 'CD-R  PX-W1610A' '1.05' Removable CD-ROM
        0,1,0    1) *
        0,2,0    2) *

        0,5,0    5) *
        0,6,0    6) *
        0,7,0    7) *

My fstab uses '/dev/cdrom' and the symlink looks like this 'cdrom -> /dev/sr0. Here's the line from my fstab...
Code:

/dev/cdrom      /mnt/cdrom      iso9660    ro,noauto,user  0  0
Any help would be great.

thanks, olias

Gota love it... had to log in as root to do the setup. The closest I can figure is that there was an old /.k3b config in my home directory that was not triggering the 'su' setup as a user. I'm just grasping here... ???
