Hi Julian,
Hmm. I had a quick look down your cdrecord outputs and noticed you're
using the same brand of writer as me: QSI. Check out their web site -
you wont be able to unless you're running windoze! They're in Taiwan
and don't apparently even bother to release drivers for their products,
but just rely on the windoze stock. So, my very strong suspicion is
that the problem is with the drive.
My drive is reported as "QSI DVD/CDRW SBW-081 NXC5", I googled and got
little, but this
<http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-linux/2002-Nov/0470.html> although
in German (anybody read German?) it seemed to suggest the same problem
with a suse distro.
Does anybody have any comments on QSI drives not blanking CDRW???
Why not start a bug, it might help confirm if the drives are junk!
And, thanks for cc'ing me in as I've got the list on 'pause' at the moment.
Regards,
Morgan.
