I have two Lightscribe DVD drives in my desktop computer (Intrepid, x86_64) that I built a couple years ago. Anxious to try them out, I installed the LaCie software. Two points: 1) The image is black and white only 2) It takes about five minutes to finish 3) The image quality sucks, although you can get better results by burning twice. I used Lighscribe to put a graphic on a few distro CDs for friends, and then never used Lightscribe again. I still want to be able to put an image on a CD or DVD, but I guess the only way to do that properly is with an inkjet. But if I do it only once every few months I'll have clogged jets, wasted ink from cleaning, and constant headaches. So I just continue to use a sharpie. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
