    Ok, I'll try that I've always been told that xcdroast was the best 
tool to use but I'm quite happy to use somthing else. I need to write 
some scripts to write cds at work shortly so I could end up getting 
further into the scripting side a lot more, However a nice graphical 
tool is what I need to quick jobs.
    Ok k3b hmm takes 3 weeks to load as it uses kde....
    Shame it does not work.... If it helps I get  (Same as xcdroast...)
