K3B e kernel 2.6.8

<BR>Gli sviluppatori di K3B avvertono:
<BR>
<BR>Do not use Kernel 2.6.8
<BR>A patch that was introduced into the kernel shortly before the 2.6.8 release makes K3b and also the dvd+rw-tools unusable on Linux (unless run as root but that is not recommended). The very important GET CONFIGURATION MMC command is rejected by the kernel for reasons I cannot see and writing commands like MODE SELECT also fail (K3b cannot detect CD writers without it) even when the device is opened O_RDWR. Until this issue has been solved I strongly recommend to stick to kernel version 2.6.7.
<BR>Update: The kernel guys are currently fixing the problem so the next kernel release should work again.
<BR>Update 2: The problem is NOT fixed in 2.6.8.1
<BR>Update 3: Be aware that kernel 2.6.8 also contains the memory leak which makes it impossible to write audio cds, even as root.
