Gnome + K3b + K3bsetup2 Fix
by rjls - Oct 30th 2006 01:56:11
Like many here I was having a problem with k3bsetup not working right under
Gnome (they should fix this btw). Here is how to set the premissions
manually (ripped from somewhere):
The output of
Code:
ls -l /usr/bin/cdr*
should look like that :
Quote:
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root cdrom 564332 2006-08-15 20:45 /usr/bin/cdrdao
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root cdrom 133 2006-01-07 13:43 /usr/bin/cdrecord
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root cdrom 323540 2006-01-07 13:44
/usr/bin/cdrecord.mmap
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root cdrom 323540 2006-01-07 13:44 /usr/bin/cdrecord.shm
So all of those for must be owned by root and member of "cdrom"
group. Plus they must be set as "SUID" (the "s" in the
permissions).
If it doesn't look like that, you can fix it in 2 steps (in that
order).
Run both commands as root :
1) Ownership
Code:
chown root:cdrom /usr/bin/cdr*
2) Permissions
Code:
chmod 4754 /usr/bin/cdr*
3) Verify with
Code:
ls -l /usr/bin/cdr*
4) Don't forget to add your user to the cdrom group, and remember that you
have to log out and back in for group additions to take place.
that everything has been setup right.
Now it should work.

Ripping MP3's
by Kelli - Jul 8th 2005 17:15:03
I'm ripping my Cd's into Mp3s, and for some reason it's taking a
really long time. I'm not sure how to change it.
Thanks for the help.

K3b Setup
by SteveC - Dec 9th 2004 12:51:57
- I copy the file as instructed:
cp /usr/share/applnk/Settings/System/k3bsetup2.desktop
"/usr/share/applnk-mdk/Applications/Archiving/Cd burning"
Run the command for k3bsetup:
kcmshell k3bsetup2 k3bsetup
- And get errors:
kcontrol: ERROR: Module k3bsetup2 not found!
kcmshell: WARNING: Module Applications/Archiving/Cd
burning/k3bsetup.desktop doesn't specify a library!
- A messagebox appears:
There was an error loading module:
Applications/Archiving/Cd burning/k3bsetup.desktop
The dignostic is: (n/a)
- I press ok and Settings - KDE control module window appars
with a k3bsetup tab but i can only press ok or cancel and
nothing appears.
Help :(

K3b Is Great
by Jason Huebel - Dec 14th 2003 09:05:02
I just wanted to say how much I enjoy using k3b. It's by far the easiest
burning tool available for Linux. k3b is for Linux what Nero is for
Windows. Truly high-quality stuff...

K3b Setup?
by Darren Cocco - Dec 11th 2003 21:27:35
I am also having trouble with finding the setup prog. I am running Redhat 9
with KDE 3.2-12. I have tried compiling from the stable version 0.10.3 from
the K3b website and I tried from the CVS and followed the instructions to
the letter. I cannot find it anywhere. I know this is a good prog because I
have used it in Knoppix 3.3 and that was version 0.9 and it had K3b setup.

try
kdesu kcmshell k3bsetup2
or simply as root
kcmshell k3bsetup2
k3bsetup is now a kcontrolcenter module. Since you are
using gnome finding it is indeed quite hard. ;)

I tried as you said but still no luck. After typing those commands into a
console, it just pauses for a couple seconds and then returns to the
prompt.

Re: K3b Setup?
by ngrover - Dec 14th 2003 20:59:19
also, i don't see it as a kcontrolcenter module.
as a side note, k3b seems to burn fine even though i get those messages at
startup about running k3bsetup. so does it even matter that i run
it......will it improve performance at all?
thanks

Re: K3b Setup?
by Sebastian Trueg - Dec 15th 2003 01:04:37
no, it won't increase performance, but increases the
stability of the burn process. On many systems burning
fails if cdrecord does not run with root privs. But if it works
for you.... great. :)

Hi, I'm also having some difficulties running k3bsetup. Opening k3bsetup
from the settings menu doesn't work, and when i run "kcmshell k3bsetup2" as
root it utputs the following:
$kcmshell k3bsetup2
kbuildsycoca running...
kcontrol: ERROR: Module k3bsetup2 not found!
QMutex::unlock: unlock from different thread than locker
was locked by 0, unlock attempt from 16384
$Mutex destroy failure: Device or resource busy
I compiled k3b 0.10.3 from source using --prefix=/usr on a Mandrake 9.1
system. The configure script had "Compile K3bSetup 2:
yes", yet I can't seem to run it. Any ideas where my problem could lie?

Re: K3b Setup?
by rainer - Feb 1st 2004 06:21:52
silly solution, but I copied the k3bsetup2.desktop to
another place in the KDE-menu and the it worked.
in my case (Mandrake 9.1, KDE3.1.0):
cp /usr/share/applnk/Settings/System/k3bsetup2.desktop
"/usr/share/applnk-mdk/Applications/Archiving/Cd
burning"
now I can launch it from the menu under
Applications/Archiving/Cd burning

by ngrover - Dec 9th 2003 18:30:44
where on earth is this k3bsetup script? I installed from source on RedHat9

any parameters to the configure script. i did a ' find -name

Buggiest CD software out there
by Michael Bushey - Jul 9th 2003 17:36:15
Several months ago I sent a bug report of at least half a dozen bugs to the
developers and never got a response. Not one function of this software
works. Take a look at Gcombust as you can actually use it to make CD's.

Re: Buggiest CD software out there
by Michael Bushey - Jul 27th 2003 18:05:37
I just installed the latest version (.9). I
tried making an audio CD from mp3's and this
time it worked perfect. I'm not sure if the
other features like burning a data CD work yet,
but I'm guessing if not they probably will soon
as it looks like the developers are fixing bugs.

re:k3b works fine, but...
by bigbadwulf - Jun 9th 2003 23:51:58
tried to reply to above named comment but couldn't....
k3b is the biz!
Audio cd copying on my Mandrake 9.1 system is fine once I fixed the driver
file for cdrdao to include my LD dvd drive. Simply selecting generic-mmc as
the driver in k3b didn't seem to pass this to cdrdao. If you invoke cdrdao
from the command line with "cdrdao --device /dev/cdrecorder
--source-device /dev/cdrom --driver generic-mmc --source-driver generic-mmc
--on-the-fly" (you can add "--simulate" to avoid coaster
generation) you can check if cdrdao is working. This will simply copy the
cd without messing about decoding files etc afaik.
Hope this help eagleson37 with his problem.

k3b works fine, but...
by eagleson37 - Apr 9th 2003 10:21:47
K3b is the best linux cd-burner software i've seen so far, but...it
seems impossible to copy an audio cd!
The audio tracks are shown, but i have to either create an iso (wich takes
a long time!) or convert the audio tracks into wav, which i don't want.
Simply put: Can it copy an audio cd, on the fly in DAO or even TAO mode,
and if so, how does it work?
But keep in mind, this is great software, keep up the good work!

Great work
by Frechie - Mar 24th 2003 05:29:28
I have been using Linux off and on for about 2 years now. But now I have
made the complete transition (after I had to reformat and re-install XP for
the fourth time I thought it was enough). K3b has been the first burner
program I have got to work. It has made the transistion to Linux very
easy. I burned my first CD with it and it works great. Except in my car
stereo. I am getting an error on the stereo saying the disc needs to be
finalized. I looked in the settings for K3b but I couldn't find anything.
I would appreciate some help. It would make a great program even better
for me.
Thanks,
Bruce

The RPM worked 1st time! Even Nero doesn't have this for *nix. Perhaps you
should contact them and tell them about your code. Keep up the good work.

best ever seen
by henrik - Jun 7th 2002 16:51:35
It's the best burning proggy I've ever seen. And it's quick: Full Audio-CD
with 6x-speed from mp3 to Audio-CD in 12 min. Great. In addition installing
and configuring is really easy. The KDE-Crew did right to choose it as
standard-multimedia-application. Next days I'll get a DVD and test the
video-ripping-capabilities of k3b. It's a must-have.
Congratulations and thank you for that wonderful tool. :)

I think you did not specify the --prefix when you
ran configure and K3b got installed in a wrong
directory. This is so if you cannot see the little
penguin in the main window.
K3b is not able to find the setup configuration.
To solve this do a
make uninstall
and rerun configure with specifying the directory
where your kde3 is installed.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Re: nice job, but...
by Greg - Oct 18th 2003 14:16:35
Awesome job on 1.0, but....That's a PENGUIN?
I thought it was the driver from the Gorillaz vids...;-)
If you install wherever KDE is, it will work, otherwise the toolbar will
be almost empty, the menus will be very limited, start up tips will be
empty, no "Penguin", the help will be empty etc.
SW usually will work fine wherever you put it, suspect an installer
hiccup. (still did not work with all the paths set up, ld.so.conf
updated)
For Mandrake, it's /usr, SUSE is /opt/KDE IIRC.
Mandrake 9.2 users-- Don't forget to urpmi.addmedia for the PLF (Penquin
Liberation Front;-) files, libdvdcss, transcode et al...
Hit http://plf.zarb.org/ and find you closest mirror.

Personally I do not see any problems. At me the program is started without
mistakes. Hm... Very strange!
