k3b just as root


When I execute k3b as user don't appears the cdwrite. I can not execute k3bsetup.
The k3b just works fine when I run it as root why?

What kernel version do you run (uname -r)
If you can't execute k3bsetup it may caused by permision problem,

try :
Code:
find /home/hraposo/.kde -uid 0
If you have some files set to root, fix it with :
Code:
find /home/hraposo/.kde -uid 0 -exec chown hraposo:users {} \;

When I write in console k3bsetup I have the fallow output:
/usr/bin/k3bsetup: line 20: kdesu: command not found

Maybe the problem is on package...???

Check if you have it :
ls -l /opt/kde/bin/kdesu

if not, install or reinstall kdebase and kdelibs

But maybe it is not in your path... Have you /etc/profile.d/kde.sh ?

My k3b already works as user! I think because I can run k3bsetub, when I change the cdrecord and cdrdao permissions. All works fine now! Thanks!
