RE: Cdrecord and linux 2.6.12

Thanks, that was it! Now, even with 2.6.12 i can burn again.

Anyway, this shows that something is definitelly rotten there. K3b thinks that the SUID must not be on for 2.6.12 (I used to think so too). However, without cdrecord.mmap it fails on access denied.

So, who is to blame here? Kernel? cdrecord ? K3b ? Communists ?
