[SOLVED] k3b graphics all messed up

hifi100 · 10-05-2018, 02:33 AM

I have installed K3b under OpenBSD 6.3

Problem is the GUI is all messed up.

Please see attachment.

How do I fix this ?

K3b needs some kde libs, and I had trouble with it on linux in the past. The first thing I would do is run

Code:

ldd /path/to/k3b |grep found

which should show nothing. Any library named is unavailable to k3b

printed nothing. What should I do next ?

Do you have a specific need for k3b? If not, then why not use the native tools available in the base system?

I've always used cdio(1) to burn CDRs.

For DVD+/-R discs, install the sysutils/dvd+rw-tools port and use growisofs(1).

Refer to faq13

It doesnt matter if its k3b or any other tool but I need a GUI.

I have never used the cli to burn DVDs.

I use cdrecord. The first step is to make an iso.

Code:

$ mkhybrid -R -o sys.iso /path_to_file

Then burn the disc.

Code:

# cdrecord -v -tao speed=4 dev=/dev/cd0c /path_to_file.iso

Adjust the speed to your preference. The lower the speed number, the slower the burn.

cd0 is a device inside the computer. If using an external device it will be cd1 (if that is the only external device mounted).

There is a # in front of my burn command, because I have not given my user permission to use the device and must burn using root.

Didn't work.

Had to replace -tao with -dao.

Thanks a lot.
