Hi all, I went to the homepage of the dvd+rw-tools homepage. http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/tools/
It gave me the following warning "IMPORTANT NOTE for 6.0 users! Newer Linux kernels have ridiculously low default memorylocked resource limit, which prevents privileged users from starting growisofs 6.0 with "unable to anonymously mmap 33554432: Resource temporarily unavailable" error message. Next version will naturally have workaround coded in, but meanwhile you have to issue following command at command prompt prior starting growisofs: * if you run C-like shell, issue 'limit memorylocked unlimited'; * if you run Bourne-like shell, issue 'ulimit -l unlimited'; IMPORTANT NOTE for 5.19 users! A bug was introduced in version 5.19, which manifests itself by inability to finalize recording, it takes forever to "flush cache." Apply hotfix or download patched tar-ball. If you have suffered from this bug and have non-finalized DVD±R media, you can use this snippet to "revive" it. DVD+RW media can be "finalized" with dvd+rw-format -lead-out." Now I'm running $ growisofs --version * growisofs by <ap...@fy.chalmers.se>, version 7.1, front-ending to genisoimage: genisoimage 1.1.8 (Linux) So does this still to be patched or has the workaround been applied in the newer version. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to cdwrite-requ...@other.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
