This still an issue. I have spent weeks trying to burn a data DVD on Hardy. I have read every post possible. Every thread doesn't seem to come to a solution. I have an LG GSA-4040B DVD burner. I was half way through a spindle of Sony DVD and upgraded to Hardy from Gutsy.
- Did a fresh install of Hardy - Update the firmware on the DVD drive - Tried multiple brands of blank media - Changed my IDE cable to the DVD drive from 40 pin to 80 pin. - Set the drive to master/slave - Tried the latest version of dvd+rw tools - Tried mutliple dvd burning tools. Brasero, Nautilus, K3B, command line... All fail at burning a data DVD. - Tried multiple kernel options, like "combined_mode=libata atapi_enabled=1" and "all_generic_ide" - Tried enabling burnproof in nautilus. - Tried burning at multiple speeds So, with trying all this, I was left with a new set of multi colored coasters... A set of about 20. However, I finally came to a solution last night. I reinstalled Gutsy, 7.10. After the install was complete, lone behold, I successfully burned a data DVD. I have attached the K3B log.
