k3b and xcdroast hate each other??

funkatron · 03-27-2005, 03:43 PM

I'm running Suse 9.1. I installed xcdroast using Yast and configured it as root so that everyone can burn cds. However it seems to have messed up k3b which can only detect my cd writer when run by root, before it could detect my cd writer when normal users ran it. I have run k3b setup 2 again but it hasn't fixed it neither has uninstalling xcdroast. Anyone know anything else that I should try?

I think only the newest versions of each have resolved this issue. If you haven't yet, consider setting up apt4rpm for issues like this. http://linux01.gwdg.de/apt4rpm/

I'm curious what popular applications are available via apt4rpm that aren't available via yast.

All of them. The apt repository is about 5X larger than yasts DVD.
