1) K3b works with DSL 1.5
2) Exact same k3b file doesn't work with DSL2.x release candidate.
3) Therefore, the problem must be with DSL2.xRC and not the k3b program

EDIT: This was a reply to mikshaw. Hadn't read roberts post yet.

Any way you look at it, it has nothing to do with DSL development. It worked in DSL 1.5...that's good. It doesn't work in DSL 2.x...that means that the package needs to be modified to work in 2.x..it doesn't mean that there is a problem with DSL 2.x because DSL is not being built to support k3b.

mikshaw is correct in his analysis.

Here is another analogy. DSL 2.x has new kernel and new modules and a slightly difference collection thereof. It is in fact a different system than DSL 1.x.

The MyDSL extensions can be thought of as third party supplied programs. Lets say the user a has such a "third party program", and that it runs well in Windows98 and the third party program does not run on WindowsXP. Should the user complainn to Microsoft or the thrid party? What do you think MS would tell the user? It is obvious that the third party should take a look at the problem.

For a specific example alsa.debs doesn't work in 2.0. Is that a problem with 2.0. No. It is because DSL 2.x is a different system

John, has setup just such a sub-board for the community. Where "third party" contributions can be posted, tested, discussed, and users and makers can zero in on helping grow and support each other.

I hope this is the right place to post this. If not ,forgive me I know not what I do. K3b works in dsl 1.4 it does not work in 2.0 or any of the rc's dcopserver not found Since I used both the online repository to download and a stored version of k3b and they worked on 1.4 then I assumed something changed within the operating system to create this problem. I mention3ed this in release section I was told quite curtly this is a k3b problem and not a dsl DON"T POST HERE. Since dsl is the core and all of the programs are its accessories, what does one post in rc area. I enjoy this operating system but don't enjoy getting chewed out. Maybe the moral superiority. of being in charge is going to people's heads. I expect at least a modicum of respect. as a 54 yr old combat vietnam vet I am not used to such attitudes and do not tolerate them. If you have a problem deal with it . Don't throw the garbage to me. Slax has a k3b that works and a 2.6 kernal to boot. I do believe I will throw my efforts to help in that direction and you can have your OP. MY state of mind does not let me tolerate abuse. civility is not only nice it is required by me. Marty Young . Now hows that for an attitude. All I wanted was a working k3b.

My vote is let's delay the release of the working k3b.dsl until this guy is converted to Slax..

After all these years, people who cannot live without DSL cannot live without DSL. I went back to Knoppix, Auditor, Knoppix-std and other livecd but reverted back to DSL.

How can we oblige him the way he behaved, even if he paid for his copy?

I should add that CDW which is included in base DSL works fine for erase, write data, write image. Probably most of us already know that.
