cdrecord always corrupting CDs

Hi,
It's been a month or so and everytime I burn a CD on my laptop, the process
ends abrubtly. I end up throwing the CD away and burning on another machine.
This CD writer has always worked just fine with Linux and with this FC6
installation specifically. I am attaching k3b's log file. Is this a known
bug ?

Best Regards
