Possibly the manpages might enlighten. Also, and I don't recall where I got them, but I have 2 versions of cdrecord showing in the the settings/k3bsetup menu, one is Jorg's cdrecord-2.1a37 and the other is a fork called cdrecord-2.1-dvd, forked I suspect because of Jorg's petty recalcitrance over the "rapid" pace of kernel developement. He's still bound and determined the only legal kernel for a linux distro is a 2.4 kernel. Shrug. He loudly proclaims his expertise about such things has no equal on the planet but refuses to add support for 2.6 features with its newer, far more sensible way of handling device access without also makeing sure you see his sermon on the subject in the form of meaningless warning messages. He may well be talented, but the attitude sure gets old, fast. So you might google for cdrecord-2.1-dvd, but its probably in the dvdtools package. -- Cheers, Gene People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word 'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's stupid bounce rules.
