has to do with the scsi libraries by joerg schilling, the same guy who wrote cdrecord. afair, he suggested some changes to the kernel, but those were rejected by linus and others. the fellow went into a sulk and refused to extend support to the 2.4.x kernels. since both cdrecord and cdrdao, the two (only?) cd-writing programs for linux, use this library, issues cropped up with multisession writing in particular. i don't have any first-hand experience, having never tried multisession myself. maybe these have been solved since. the relevant modules are ide-scsi.o (for ide cdrom drives using scsi emulation), sr_mod.o and scsi_mod.o. i also found something called scsi_debug.o in /lib/modules/<kernel_identifier_string>/kernel/driver/scsi you may try loading that to see if you get any error messages. - t. -- cogito, ergo es. -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line.
