k3b file error

When I try to burn a data DVD with k3b it errors out telling me…

Unable to find the following files:
/home/ion/.kde4/share/apps/RecentDocuments/Mon oncle d’Am+�rique (Resnais, 1980).srt.desktop

…but when I invoke (as root)…

ls -al home/ion/.kde4/share/apps/RecentDocuments

…it retruns…

ls: cannot access home/ion/.kde4/share/apps/RecentDocuments: No such file or directory

So is k3b lying or ls?

Before you ask, fsck gave no errors. But Find files/Folders from the Application Launcher menu finds and lists it in the RecentDocuments directory as above, then tells me it is “Inaccessible”. Delete does not work from GUI or CLI.

Thanks.

CANCEL the last message please. I think I need glasses.
