I get the same popup when starting = k3b=20 as a user but _not_ when I'm starting k3b with kdesu. Then it finds the=20 drives and all the other progs, including growisofs. But the man page of=20 growisofs says in the Notes that executed under sudo, growisofs refuses to= =20 start. That being probably the reason why k3b doesn't "find" it... Hope this helps, Beni. --nextPart1697268.nXIP8Mddt3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBB0wyE98oeEzEDrEcRAqleAJ4jHQM34Y1YPOAV7cy54zfUDfHW2wCfZkWx fQw2CdmG/TQUyyLkwhZRLyY= =qPT+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1697268.nXIP8Mddt3--
