howdy, need some help if anyone has an idea on this one. my CD writer is not working. it will burn the files, but when it comes time to fixate it goes into a fit and finally dies on me. any leads on this, is it hardware or software would be appreciated. thanks for any & all assistance thanks Adrian sample outputs follow: ------------------- this is one where it doesn't write anything, which happens now & then: ------------ Cdrecord 1.9 (i586-mandrake-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2000 J�rg Schilling TOC Type: 1 = CD-ROM scsidev: '0,2,0' scsibus: 0 target: 2 lun: 0 Linux sg driver version: 2.1.39 Using libscg version 'schily-0.1' atapi: 0 Device type : Removable CD-ROM Version : 2 Response Format: 2 Capabilities : Vendor_info : 'PHILIPS ' Identifikation : 'OMNIWRITER26 ' Revision : '2.03' Device seems to be: Generic mmc CD-RW.
