Summary: CD-RW on Linux

[Yaacov Fenster - System Engineering Troubleshooting and other miracles]

Bottom line: Even though the HP web page doesn't mention it, the HP
9210i is MMC3 compatible and it works on Linux. (SUSE 6.1/2.2.7). Worked
like a charm, no special setting needed.

Original question:
> 
> We are trying to put together a new Linux system with a CD-RW (Multi) on
> it. However, the various suppliers have a dearth of information about
> the CD-RW's imported to Israel.
> It goes something like this:
> We have the HP 9210i, which is the best around, but we don't know what
> MMC compatibility is. And of course we don't know what linux is. On the
> other hand we have a list of CD-RWs without their model numbers, just
> basics like 32x4x2, etc.
> 
> Does anyone know of new CD-RW's available in Israel that are supported
> on Linux ? (Or if the 9210i works on Linux). A supplier's name would be
> useful also.
