There is an holy dependency bug witch is integrated into Fedora from ages. Let me explain:
There are two programs what you could use to write CD's, DVD's - one is the deprecated: and well hated bogus wodim (what is an debian zombie fork of an old-timer cdrtools), and the another is libburnia. If you look around, between the gnome/kde programs mostly they are looking for wodim - but couldn't tell you why. But sometimes they are using libburnia, witch currently under development, but works like a charm. The problem exists mostly because of wodim - there are many types of bugs, what includes permission rights and many more types too. I don't know why are the programs are still using this engine... 2010/9/25 Joachim Backes <joachim.bac...@rhrk.uni-kl.de> > On 09/25/2010 01:31 AM, JD wrote: > > Have HP DVD/RW (DVD+R) 16X.
