Hi Bower - is that the entire output of the log? I can see that k3b checked both your DVD/CD-RW devices, and began listing the write speeds of /dev/hdd ... Then it just stops.

I wonder if it has a few problems with hdd? What make is that drive? I don't think k3b can determine the drive's write speed:

Blockdevice:    /dev/hdd
Generic device:
Vendor:         ATAPI
Description:    DVD D  DH16D2P
Version:        HP53
Write speed:    0
Profiles:       Error

Hard to tell, because you can sometimes get quite worrying output messages from applications without them failing.

Another idea: do you have a disk in your DVD/RW drive when you're starting k3b? I saw the message:

(K3bDevice::Device) unknown dvd media type: 320
(K3bDevice::Device) /dev/hdd: READ TOC/PMA/ATIP invalid length returned: 2

If so,then try removing the disk before starting it.

i am not sure but when i reboot k3b will boot right up since it was already trying to boot it so it does it automanicly it will burn the disk just fine.
