Description David Carlos Manuelda 2006-07-09 15:56:58 UTC
Well, in order to be able to record CDs with K3B, I must do an ulimit -l unlimited, but I have a problem doing so: I open a konsole, sudoing to root succesfully and I type: "ulimit -l unlimited". I close konsole (quit and quit again) and I am unable to burn CDs, the reason is, when I change the ulimit -l size, it is stored while I keep opened this konsole window (and ulimit changes are only applicable to root), when I close it, all goes back to normal (ulimit -l 32).

How is it possible? (Doesn't it stores the ulimit conf?)

Please, see man ulimit. Not a bug at all.
