so, I'm trying to figure out exactly what packages are uses here, with K3B, to 
burn a disc.. I see the cdrdao package that uses DAO mode, but where is 
SAO...
here are the versions of applicable software I have installed:

pbc@paulandcilla:~/movies$ dpkg --list cdrdao 
ii  cdrdao         1:1.2.2-16     records CDs in Disk-At-Once (DAO) mode 
 
 
ii  wodim          9:1.1.9-1      command line CD/DVD writing tool 

ii  genisoimage    9:1.1.9-1      Creates ISO-9660 CD-ROM filesystem images


# apt-cache search wodim
cdrdao - records CDs in Disk-At-Once (DAO) mode
cdrecord - Dummy transition package for wodim
cdrkit-doc - Documentation for the cdrkit package suite
cdw - Tool for burning CD's - console version
genisoimage - Creates ISO-9660 CD-ROM filesystem images
gramofile - Transfer sound from gramophone records to CD
wodim - command line CD/DVD writing tool

it shows cdrkit-doc, but not cdrkit. it shows cdrdao, but what gives you SAO??
I might try to remove/purge these, and reinstall.. maybe an older version 
might work, but that might also break things..
