Hi, > my externally mounted dvd writer is unavailable > as far as k3b/wodim goes.
You will hardly find support for wodim here. That would rather be at [email protected] wodim alternatives supported here are: - cdrecord by Joerg Schilling - cdrskin by me. Just google. Nevertheless i expect that DVD burning of k3b is done via growisofs and not by a cdrecord compatible program. So you might first have to find out why k3b possibly shows the symptoms which you experience. What are they, btw ? My (rusty) knowledge about k3b addresses is that it gets them not from the "cdrecord" binary. I would suspect pseudo file /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info to be the source of its drive list. Do you see your drive in that pseudo file ? Typically as "sr1" or "sr2". If in doubt, try commands like eject /dev/sr1 and look which drive moves. Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
