Hi

No angry, just worry ;-)

Is that going to be like this forever ? I mean not being able to burn a
CD as a normal user. I would not like to give the root password to my
customers, or explain them that burning a CD requires a sysadmin ;-)

I know about 2.6.7 kernel, but is there no security exploit with this
one ? I was thinking that 2.6.8 fixed some security problems. I can be
wrong.

By the way, I checked the freshmeat site for cdrecord. It seems to be
not only technical problem, but also ethical. Is there a war somewhere ?
:-)

Sorry to be a little bit of topic. I update my K3B and cdrecord hoping
that this could fixed the access right problem. So sad ...;-)
