Package: cdrecord Version: 4:2.01+01a01-4 Followup-For: Bug #265747 I was going to write the following bug report and I found this one that seems the same, but I still submit my information, maybe it helps.
Cdrecord-Clone 2.01.01a01 Linux 2.6.12.5 Debian Testing of 1 september 2005. Cdrecord freezes, I can't write CDs. I tried diferent transports: ATA, ATAPI, /dev/hdc, and even ide-scsi, they all freeze. I hate to report that Windows XP with Nero works without problems, but is not my favorite OS. I tried Knoppix 3.6 too, both with 2.4 and 2.6 kernels and it doesn't work too, the Debian package kernel-image-2.6.8-2-k7 version 2.6.8-16 doesn't work neither. I want to be as helpful to you as I can, so tell me what to do and I will do it, I appreciate your help. I use Linux since 1996 and I never had problems with CD writing. The same CD Writer works on my old computer, I buyed a new one but keeped my old CD Writer. Yes, I know that I don't have the best brands of hardware, but they are more expensive and I live in the 3rd. world, though it works on Windows so hopefuly it could work on Linux. The kernel complains in multiple ways, sometimes it simply says several times: hdc: lost interrupt and other times it says all this: hdc: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } hdc: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { AbortedCommand } ide: failed opcode was: 0xec hdc: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy } ide: failed opcode was: unknown hdc: DMA disabled hdc: drive not ready for command hdc: ATAPI reset complete hdc: request sense failure: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } hdc: request sense failure: error=0x50 { LastFailedSense=0x05 } With any type of media (CD-R or CD-RW): # cdrecord -v dev=ATA:1,0,0 -atip Cdrecord-Clone 2.01.01a01 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2004 Joerg Schilling NOTE: this version of cdrecord is an inofficial (modified) release of cdrecord and thus may have bugs that are not present in the original version.
