Re: cdrw not found by k3b

Have you tried something counterintuitive, such as downgrading to 9.0 and 
checking to see if k3b works then?

Reasoning?

When I upgraded to 9.0 the USB printer stopped working (could see it and print 
to it using one form of the shell command but not the other)

clean installing didn't work

upgrading to 9.1 didn't work

clean installing 9.1 did 

From this I deduce that there are some malformed config files or mappings 
(i.e., some form of clerical error in the packaging process).  Unfortunately 
I don't know enough to know whether I'm talking rubbish.

However...

I have a USB scanner that I can now no longer access through kooka/sane/xsane 
even though I can test it successfully in YaST.   This feels like further 
supporting evidence

I've got no idea if this is helpful
