Have your tried running a "cdrecord -scanbus". Do this to see what the
output says. I have always done all CD burning with cdrecord at the
command line. Seems to work the best. You can also read CD
burning-How-To. It explains how to make an image, and how to copy this
to your CD. Hope this helps.....
