Hi folks, Not strictly speaking a Gentoo problem, but I'm completely flumoxed on this one so any help would be greatly appreciated.
I've purchased a Lite-On SOHW-1673s DVD burner and am having a heck of time getting anything burnt ;-). My system sees the drive fine as hdc, and dvd+rw-media returns the correct output (below). However k3b and subsequently growisofs all return the same error: localhost myth # growisofs -Z /dev/hdc dvdrw/ Executing 'mkisofs dvdrw/ | builtin_dd of=/dev/hdc obs=32k seek=0' /dev/hdc: "Current Write Speed" is 3.3x1385KBps. :-( unable to [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Input/output error :-( write failed: Input/output error The drive spins up and down 3 times before the error message appears. I have done some googling, and have already turned off scsi-emulation. It appears to me that the drive is read-only? Any thoughts? My dvd+rw-mediainfo is below.
