Hoping this adds something to the tracking down of the problem and doesn't muddy the water more... I have an LG (Goldstar) IDE cd burner, similar to Rog's (bios ver 1.05 instead of his 1.07, but otherwise the same) and I get the same error. I also find that after burning a cd, the read light stays on and the CD burner is locked up. The machine keeps trying to reset the scsi line, but can't, so it is slow as a wet week, and the only thing that fixes it is to reboot. If I specify the -eject option to cdrecord, all is well! the cd ejects at the end of the burn, and the burner is ok. I also get a similar error on a Toshiba Satelite Pro 4280 laptop, but it has no cd burner, but a cd/dvd instead. This error just comes up at times when I'm trying to read a cd. Next time it happens I'll try to copy it and mail to the list. I never had this problem with 7.1 on either machine. If it wasn't for KDE2 I would go back to 7.1 this instant! Trevor
