Just installed K3b as a test, came up with the same bug, K3b does not 
detect dvd+rw-tools, then used dpkg --purge to purge dvd+rw-tools and 
reinstalled it, same problem.  Seems like K3b is buggy, will wait  to 
file bug report, in case first poster wants to. Kernel version 2.6.7.
:uname -a Linux Raiz-mpx 2.6.7-mpx #1 SMP Tue Aug 10 09:58:16 CDT 2004 
i686 GNU/Linux 
kernel compiled from debian source.

From K3b, Unable to find dvd+rw-format executable
K3b uses dvd+rw-format to format DVD-RWs and DVD+RWs.

rcall@Raiz-mpx:/usr/bin$ whereis dvd+rw-format
dvd+rw-format: /usr/bin/dvd+rw-format

Looks like everything else can find it except K3b. 

As stated else where, I do not thing the problem is burning the files, 
but it is erasing the disc if its a dvd+-rw with K3b, I seem to 
remember having similar problems with K3b some time ago might of been 
an early version maybe a year ago. I think I know what it was, it 
totally screwed up my /etc/fstab file, once I fixed it by hand, and 
did not let K3b setup use it again, still could not detect my cdrw 
right, even though I used the other options in K3b.
