I have a LiteON 12x10x32 CD-RW running under SuSE 8.0 Professional. I would guess that 8.0 would be able to recognise your CD-RW even if it is faster. I think you must have some SCSI-IDE module running in order to use CD burners. It makes your burners look like SCSI devices. What device are you trying to use? Best regards Johnny :o)

You need to load the module "ide-scsi" at boot by appending the boot parameters. Then you need to change the simbolic link "cdrom" from where it points to point it to /dev/sr0 . And then change the permissions of the group to "users" so you can use it as a "non-root" user. HTH, Curtis.
Hi, Usually the setup of 8.0 (and I guess 8.1 as well) takes good care of installing it correctly. In some cases you need to verify a few settings (symlink to /dev/sr0, hddx boot option) but there is plenty about that in the archives of this list. No big deal anymore.

Good day Carl,
While on this subject, has anyone actually blanked/written/read CDRWs? I can do CDR's all day long, but CDRW is a packet device (UDF?), and koncd seems to be upset that it's not iso9660. (Suse8) Maybe loading the wrong driver?
I do blank/write/read and rewrite CD-RWs. But I use cdrecord. I can not really decipher the cdrecord message you posted, but I have had troubles with some CD-RW disks that made cdrecord flip out. It tends to happen after a number of rewrites to a disk. Then the solution is mostly to do: cdrecord -force dev=<whatever> speed=1 blank=all Sure it takes some time, but after that cdrecord wil happily write and rewrite the same disk that just made it flip out. Maybe you should try that and see if it makes any difference for you. Best regards :o) Johnny :o)
