[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#500986: k3b: Resets USB bus when external DVD writer is used

[Joerg Platte]

Package: k3b
Version: 1.0.5-3
Severity: normal

Each time I want to write a DVD on my external USB DVD writer (Plextor PX-716A) K3B
detects the media for 1 or 2 seconds and then resets the USB device and
starts searching for suitable media again. This makes it impossible to write
an image directly to DVD. Writing the image with growisofs directly works
without any problems, hence it is not a hardware problem. Here you can see
the dmesg output:
