Starting k3b directly by "k3b --data /boot/vmlinuz*", then k3b marks
these kernel files correctly as data files, and I can burn that data CD,
so I guess it's a drag/drop problem.
Kind regards
Ok if you really don't see valid file types mentioned by Ed, your MIME
db may be altered. Check for valid filetypes
xdg-mime query filetype /boot/initramfs*
xdg-mime query filetype /boot/vmlinuz*
and for default apps for theese valid types also
xdg-mime query default application/x-raw-disk-image
xdg-mime query default application/x-ms-dos-executable
Not sure as I can't test it now, but check if k3b stores somewhere local
filetype cache, so reset could be useful.
.kde4/share
.config
.local/share
.cache
Hi alchemist,
Another point: clicking first on the "New Data Project" button, and
then dragging /boot/vmlinuz... to the Data project window, no error
happens, and I can burn flawlessly. It seems that the direct drag/drop
process selects the wrong target action.
