I use the cli all day and prefer it a bunch over a lot of gui stuff, BUT when I want/need to burn CD/DVD I much prefer the 'simplicity' of K3B or Gnomebaker or whaterver over the command line. He was asking for a SIMPLE way.. not a complex, multi-step cli appraoch requiring su to root and back then even MORE cli commands. Sorry, but that approach is to 'complex' for a question asking for a SIMPLE solution. note: don't get me wrong, I want every linux user no matter how clueless, to eventually learn enough cli to do these sort of things. but... until they reach that level, let them 'point and click' away.. :-) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
