If you write a > 4G DVD on someting else, does it work on the setup where you experience problems with K3B written DVD's?

I'm trying to narrow this down. The thing is that the "limit" mentioned in your dmesg is information obtained from the drive itself, which is obtained from reading the DVD. It sets the size limit (this isn't an OS limit, is what I'm trying to say).

I strongly suspect that K3B is writing something wrong, and that Linux is just being anal about it, more so than Windows. This might not be ideal, but if the disk is written incorrectly (with incorrect size values for the session), then that's not Linux's fault, it's K3B's fault.
