I've found this bug writing 4GB DVD. K3b stops with this
error
----------------------- K3b Version: 0.12.12 KDE Version: 3.5.1 QT Version: 3.3.5 Kernel: 2.6.16-rc3 Devices [...] Size of filesystem calculated: 2296251 growisofs: 6.1 growisofs ----------------------- :-( unable to anonymously mmap 67108864: Resource temporarily unavailable ----------------------- [...] The only change to burn is to launch "ulimit -l unlimited" from superuser and then burn with root... tested kernels: 2.6.15, 2.6.15.2, 2.6.16-rc3 Tested k3b: 0.12.11, 0.12.12. Surely with debian and this hardware month ago the burn process worked (the last dvd burned...) Using "testing". |
This task depends upon
The bugs doesn't reproduce...
(Now compiling 0.12.10..., waiting feedback from you)
With 0.12.10 or 0.12.9 it doesn't reproduce.
It's a k3b archlinux bug?
k3b 0.12.12-1
dvd+rw-tools 6.1-1
I have the permission to burn as a normal user and I'm already added to optical group: in fact I'm able to burn with success simple CDs or Small DVDs.
The only change to burn big DVDs (for example 4GB of data or video) is to launch 'ulimit -l unlimited' from root and then to run k3b as root.
I'm not able to use 'ulimit -l unlimited' as a normal user (it gives me permission denied) so the only chance is to run k3b as root after setting 'ulimit -l unlimited'.
But as I and you know this tip isn't a fixing but only a temporaneous workaround.
using the ulimit -l unlimited trick and increasing the buffer helps luckily
For the first time ever with k3b on Arch, I now get this error with 0.12.15-1.
