Hi, > https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/437135-Cannot-Burn-to-DVD-R-Disc-with-Plextor-PX-716SA
This describes timeouts during the burn process. Not what you experience. I riddle about "faio_wait_on_buffer" in the report about cdrskin. Neither libburn nor cdrskin have it or use it as system call. I cannot find it in linux-source-3.16, but rather among the software of Joerg Schilling (cdrecord et.al.). > https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=246647 This is an aborted SCSI command with an error code probably fabricated by the kernel. But the follow-up https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=246647#25 looks more similar to your problem. > I'm thinking of recompiling the kernel to "tweak" it for my case. can you > suggest any options that i can try to enable/disale? Regrettably no. Therefore my advise to ask kernel developers if you can find some and get them interested. Burn programs are userland tools and rely on flawless execution of ioctl(SG_IO). > I can only thing about legacy scsi support. Ewww ... that's really old. And i am not aware that it ever applied to USB connected drives. I used it a decade ago for IDE connected drives. /dev/sg rather than /dev/sr. Finally it is supposed to use the same low level drivers as the /dev/sr driver. I'd expect that the problem sits at the low level.
