[lug] Burning 4.7 gig DVDs

[Elyse M. Grasso]

Does anyone know the settings in k3b or the commands to use on the command 
line in order to actually use all of the space of a DVD? 

Is there a particular version of the tools that I need to be using to get this 
to work with Suse 10.0. I know Novell tends to provide crippled multimedia 
stuff. 

k3b reports the dvd has 4.4 Gigs available and the filesystems reports the 
file (a slice generated by kdar) is 4.3 gigs, but k3b is refusing to accepts 
files over 4 Gigs.

Google reports others with the same problem, but I haven't found a clear 
explanation of the settings to fix it.

I am assuming, possibly wrongly, that kdar wouldn't be set up to create this 
size of slice if no one could ever actually write them to a dvd.
