Description cerebro84 2004-02-18 21:48:14 UTC

Version:           0.11.90 (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.1 (Mandrake Linux 9.2 3.3.1-4mdk) 
OS:          Linux

By when I upgraded from kernel 2.6.2rc3 to 2.6.3rc3 I couldn't start k3b anymore. I tried to run it by a konsole and this is what I got:

k3b: (K3bPluginFactory) creating K3bPluginFactory.
k3b: (K3bPluginFactory) creating K3bPluginFactory.

k3b: (K3bExternalBinManager) Cdrecord 2.1a19 features: gracetime, overburn, cdtext, clone, cuefile, suidroot, plain-atapi, hacked-atapi
k3b: (K3bExternalBinManager) 2 1 -1 a19 seems to be cdrecord version >= 1.11a02, using burnfree instead of burnproof
k3b: (K3bExternalBinManager) seems to be cdrecord version >= 1.11a31, support for Just Link via burnfree driveroption
k3b: (K3bCdrdaoProgram) could not start /usr/share/cdrdao

k3b: /dev/sr0 resolved to /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd
k3b: /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd is block device (0)
k3b: /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd seems to be cdrom
k3b: bus: 0, id: 0, lun: 0
k3b: (K3bCdDevice) /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd: init()

Then, the splash window was already frozen. What can I do? I really need k3b!!

I'm closing the report based on an information by Frank Pieczynski. It seems that it's a kernel bug and there's already a patch ( http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=107754298223833&w=2 ).
