Re: Two CD-DVD writers and Debian Lenny
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Ok, here are the details. The situation is now clear, but I don't know yet how to solve it. Three CD-DVD readers, from which two are writers. Configuration is as follows: 1/ writer (OPTIARC AD-7203S), 2/ reader (NEC DV-5800C), 3/ writer (NEC ND-2500A). Using the `Dummy mode' of Gnomebaker, I realize that * Choosing `NEC ND-2500A' results in choosing `OPTIARC AD-7203S' (which works), * Choosing `OPTIARC AD-7203S' results in choosing `NEC DV-5800C' (which is not a writer and therefore fails), * It is not possible to write on NEC ND-2500A, * I'm getting an error == Warning: Cannot raise RLIMIT_MEMLOCK limits.scsidev == which seems not to affect any burning. By `A results in choosing B' I mean that the device actually taken into consideration is B at the place of A. (For example, B is ejected at the place of A.) How could I put this into order?
