Even if it is seen into drives my system won't recognize the writer... since 15.04 update...

With k3b started as root the problem stays the same

Dont understand why I cannot write, is there a driver change on last kernel?

you need to be in the "burn" group of your operating system...

you can do this through the wizanrd in k3b below "settings -> system settings"

  • The group alone is not the solution - the wizard gives the device to the group with rw rights.... check that with "ls -lah /dev/sr" or whatever your devicename is...
