Hello,
I am using K3B 0.11.20 under KDE 3.3.2 from a Knoppix 3.8.1 installation.
When I launch K3B, the following message is displayed:
K3b requires growisofs.
Install the package dvd+rw-tools.
Kpackage shows that it is installed and growisofs is listed in the files list in usr/bin
What is wrong?
----------------
The following is dispayed on the console:
knoppix@4[~]$ sudo k3b
Error: "/var/tmp/kdecache-knoppix" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.
Link points to "/var/tmp/kdecache-root"
Error: "/tmp/kde-knoppix" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.
Link points to "/tmp/kde-root"
Error: "/tmp/ksocket-knoppix" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.
Link points to "/tmp/ksocket-root"
Error: "/var/tmp/kdecache-knoppix" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.
Link points to "/var/tmp/kdecache-root"
Try running Kmenu>System>K3BSet Up
to see if the problem persists.

Many thanks. It works now.
I have to launch K3b in user mode not in root.
