Re: [eug-lug]CD R/RW

[John C. Van Gelder]

Some of the CD done on the XP machine were drag and drop some were 
burned with Roxio easy CD creator, when I am in windows both of the CD 
drives seem to work OK.  I have had some problems with some of the XP 
drag/drop discs working in anything but the CD R/RW drive, when I am in 
windows.  I havn't had Linux up and running very long and am at the 
moment not smart enough to ask an intelligent question.  I checked a few 
hundred FAQ's but did not see anything that looked similar. 

I wonder if I have a jumper that is in the wrong place, and it has not 
been a problem with windows, but is in Linux..??

Thanks for the response.

When you created your CD's in XP did you just drag and drop
files to them? What software did you use? The CD may be UDF in
which case an older drive would have trouble reading from it or
support may not be in your kernel. I would expect blanks to spit
out an error rather than continue to spin. Could just be the way
the drive is accessed by RH. Try disabling 'automount' if you're
using it.

both seem to

CD's and some of the CD's I have burned on the ME side of
     

the machine.
