The stock, GPL CDRecord 2.0 + DVD-patch in the overwhelming majority of stock distros support this drive. Try just using "cdrecord --version" and noting if it is indeed the modified version. E.g., (from Fedora Core 3 / Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4) $ cdrecord --version Cdrecord-Clone 2.01-dvd (--) Copyright (C) 1995-2004 Jörg Schilling Note: This version is an unofficial (modified) version with DVD support Note: and therefore may have bugs that are not present in the original. Note: Please send bug reports or support requests to http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla Note: The author of cdrecord should not be bothered with problems in this version. DVD Record is based on an old CDRecord 1.x release, and was only designed for Pioneer DVD-R drives or direct licensees/implementations. > The closest solution I have so far is to use growisofs.
