Please post: 1) Linux Distro Name 2) Linux kernel version ( do $ uname -a). I need this to find out if there is a USB problem. 3) The program you were using to do the CD burning.

Tony Given the limited info; this is the only bug report I could find and it's from 9 months ago. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/beta/show_bug.cgi?id=121997 >From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; pt-BR; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040207 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: Attaching a ZIP CD-RW 640 to any USB port (direct, not via hub), usb_storage identifies correctly the device. It is registered to /dev/sr0 and /dev/scd0. But IT IS NOT registered to /dev/sg0. This way, it is possible to mount and read CD's in this driver, but it is not possible to write CDs. _______________________________________________ CWE-LUG mailing list http://www.cwelug.org/ [email protected] http://lists.firepipe.net/listinfo/cwe-lug
