On Kubuntu 5.10 I need to burn a disc. I see that the files I have
added make up 619.7 MB and my disc is 700MB. When I try to burn I get
this message:
"Could not determine size of resulting image file."

And this is the debug info:

Incorrectly encoded string (??????.kaffeine) encountered.
Possibly creating an invalid Joliet extension. Aborting.

I should note that I do have hebrew file names in there, I only
mention this because of the ??????.kaffeine being mentioned as
incorrectly encoded. Also, before I ran K3B I did K3B setup as root.
