I have this dvd burner, it recognizes it but nothing else. I can not get the dvd to open at all. I have a creative cdrw which works fine, but how would I go about setting up this Sony burner?
Sorry if it came off bad I typed after my Jets blew the game today Anyway
When i press the button for the dvd tray to pop open so i can put a dvd in it won't open. Also now that you said install k3b i had my butt handed to me. I had gotten all the way up too, make. The next step was to, su -c "make install", which i typed I then received this message
shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
make: getcwd: : No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.
It then laughed at me.
Thank you for your replies!!!!
