Hi
I've managed to get k3b to compile I hope with HAL support.
I had to edit the Makefile, as there is no option on the config gui:-

CONFIGURE_ARGS= --with-k3bsetup=yes --without-resmgr --with-hal

Hal is built, but not running.
and I can't see anything in the handbook on manually starting a 
daemon, hald.
At the moment k3b is not seeing the DVD writer, Sony GW120
dual layer.
Even with the drive mounted k3b can't find it.
Does k3b work ?.
This is getting very frustrating, Openffice has been compiling for the
last 5 hrs and still hasn't finish, and knowing my luck it will
probably fail to build again.
So I'm stuck with a system that I can now play music on, the USB flash
stick is not mounting, I can use some Ham apps, I can send e-mail and
receive it, but if I want to save a file on media, either CD or DVD, 
 the only way at the moment is to ftp to a site, reboot
into linux and ftp it back.
I can't write to the ext3 linux partition as its read only
I haven't pluged my camera in to a USB port yet, but I'm beginning to
wonder if the memory cad will be seen.
Suggestions ?
I suspect one will be go back to linux
