what program are you using for burning?? if you are using cdrecord, open up /etc/cdrecord.conf and increase the CDR_FIFOSIZE and decrease the speed. In my box the settings are 8m and 24 respectively, and they work fine :-) -cheers- sdg PS: yesterday i burnt a 650 meg image at 40x - took 3 minutes 8 seconds ...cool :-D -cheers- sdg -- Sayamindu Dasgupta [ http://www.peacefulaction.org/sayamindu/ ] * GNU is Not Unix * ....
