[OS:N:] CD Burner glitch.

[Marc Maxwell]

Hi,

Tim at linux migration www.linuxmigration.org had a nice tutorial on
cd-burning on his site.  You might check that out, it has both command
line and gui stuff too as I recall.  

good luck

ok strange problem.
Red Hat 9
Yamaha CD Burner.CDRW
Memorex CDRW brand new disks

I used X-CD-Roast to burn a few jpg for a friend and burner seemed to
work
fine.
after finish I try to read the disk,   "No medium found"

so I try again...burn another disk,    "No Medium found"

hmmmm,  switch to Gnome toaster,   burn another disk,  "no Medium
found"

stuff one of the disks into my laptop, runs perfectly,  put in all the
others and they all run perfect????

so start checking and any CD burned on this drive will no longer open.
(they did in the past) But any CD burned on any other software or
machine
works fine!

well went to a LUG meeting and took one of the disks.

on some folks machines they opened and on some others they wouldn't
on one machine it opened burner software as though it was a new disk.

now I suspect a hardware problem but this really has me baffled,
especially why it will open disks burned on some guys windows machine
but
won't read a disk that was just burned on that drive???

anyone got any thoughts before I go buy a new burner.???

thanks
Bob
