for the sake of conserving space...i did not include the rest of the lines similar to these 2 ( there are 30 MB worth of error messages lithe this ).
I haven't tried gutsy as the laptop i'm working from is for work related activities...but this is really anoying ...as i cant user the CD/DVD drive in this thing.
If you want to kill the process using your writer you might want to issue the comand:
hdparm -w /dev/hdc
to do an ATAPI reset on the drive...and after that try to kill k3b
i get the same error in /var/log/messages
