    Red face CD Burning

    Plz help!!!
    I cannot burn any CD or DVD with my brand new installation of Ubuntu 9.10. I did not have any problem with older ubuntu (9.04), but now if I try, all gets right but in the end I get an error like this : you don't have the permission to the burner! and this makes my CD/DVD unusable!!! Is something in ubuntu 9.10 changed???? I threw away 12 CDs inbetween......
    THANXXXXXXXX

    Re: CD Burning

    Have you tried using k3b program?

    Go to synaptics and put k3b and install it. Then try burning from that.

    Re: CD Burning

    Do you have cdrkit and dvd+rw-tools installed? These are usually deps of burning programs but you never know

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install cdrkit dvd+rw-tools

    # /etc/fstab: static file system information.

    # Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier

    Re: CD Burning

    ok next time when burning cd can you run this command in terminal and then burn cd:
    Code:
    sudo k3b
    This will run k3b with superuser permissions. if this works then it will mean it is definitely permissions issue.

    Already done.... after it reminds me thar it will be dangerous for the system to use k3b as SU, I've got the same error, and got another CD to throw away ...
    I think it'lll be better to re-install the OS.... ****!

    Re: CD Burning

    Hi everybody!
    thank you very much for the interest! I had to reconfigure my XServer couse malfunctioning and.... I have just burned a DVD with several .avi videos... all well done! I think it was a problem during my installation progress.... I have to try some CDs now, but it seems that I won't have any problems at all.
    Thank you all folks...
