[SOLVED] K3b - missing icon and menu listing

Postby vinoman » Feb 1st, '14, 17:57

I've just installed and am configuring Mageia 4 KDE. Seems to be running very well. Except that when I went to look for K3b it was not listed. I installed but it would not add the icon to the menu. How do I fix this problem?

I did try to add K3b to the menu but it has no icon. Isn't K3b the default burning software for KDE?

I just checked and much to my surprise I have the same issue. This is a bug, please report it on bugzilla: http://bugs.mageia.org

You can start k3b by pressing "alt+F2 and typing k3b, then hit enter. I start almost all programs I use this way, hence I never noticed the missing menu icon. :oops:

since many already know that this is a bug and filing a report is something I don't do until they simplify the process, maybe someone at Mageia can fix the problem. I'll just type it in the command line when needed.

For as nice as Mageia is it's too bad they messed up on K3b which is the best burning program in Linux.

I'm running Cauldron which at the moment is Mageia4.
I find k3b in the menu under Tools > System Tools.

Didn't you say you looked through the menu'? k3b has always been there, same as dolphin and other system tools.
