[Bug 110484] k3b causes system freeze

[Linker]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: k3b

I wanted to write a dvd at 16x, no multisession, verify data after write.
I managed to write one, it got verified, all went ok.
Then I wanted to write a second dvd using the same setup.
5 minutes after the write started, k3b crashed (and some other
open applications went down with it).
The system froze. I could still move the mouse, but couldn't open any
application. 
But the dvd kept spinning, as if it were still written.
I left it about 10 minutes or so, with no change (disk still spinning).
I rebooted the system using Alt + SysRq + R, S, E, I, U, B.
But the dvd was still spinning ... I had to shutdown in order to make
it stop. 

I have an LG dvd writer. 
Os is Kubuntu Feisty on 32 bits, it's an upgrade from edgy.

I tried to write another dvd after this, changing some options, but it
kept freezing.
