Newbie questions (dual layer DVD with UDF)
by Laszlo Nagy 10 Aug '05

10 Aug '05

Hi All! I would like to use my DVDRAM device with UDF packet writing. System info: dybs1 /root# uname -a Linux dybs1 2.6.11.4-21.7-default #1 Thu Jun 2 14:23:14 UTC 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux It is a SuSe 9.3 system. Hardware info: LG 4120B DVD drive on /dev/hdb This unit was produced about one year ago, it was the first dual-layer dvd drive from LG. I tried to format the disc. dybs1 /home/nagylzs# dvd+rw-format -blank /dev/hdb * DVD??RW/-RAM format utility by <appro(a)fy.chalmers.se>, version 4.10. * 4.7GB DVD-RW media in Sequential mode detected. * blanking \ I do not get an error, but this program finishes within 2 seconds. Is this normal? Usually it took a minute to format a CDRW disc on my old CDRW drive. I have 'mkudffs' and other programs installed but I really don't know how to start. Do you know a URL with step-by-step instructions? Thanks, Les

unable to pktsetup
by Nobody Here 07 Aug '05

I'm using SuSE 9.3 . pktsetup fails regardless of what device I tell it. cdrwtool correctly formats the disk. The module loads from modprobe without sign of difficulty. There is a notice in the syslog that it is loaded. # lsmod pktcdvd 30140 0 cdrom 36640 3 pktcdvd,sr_mod,ide_cd # uname -orp 2.6.11.4-21.7-default i686 GNU/Linux My drive is part of a new Sony laptop # ata_identify hdc SONY_DVD_RW_DW-D56A Giving pktsetup a non-existant device as parameter: # pktsetup mycd /dev/hdc ioctl: Inappropriate ioctl for device 0 desto:/dev# ls -l mycd --wS--x--- 1 root root 0 2005-08-01 18:05 mycd Creating a block device according to documentation I've found. mknod /dev/pktcdvd0 b 97 0 # ls -l pktcdvd* crw-rw---- 1 root root 10, 62 2005-08-01 17:32 pktcdvd brw-rw---- 1 root root 97, 0 2005-08-01 17:49 pktcdvd0 # pktsetup pktcdvd0 hdc open packet device: No such device or address Using a preexisting character device: # pktsetup pktcdvd hdc ioctl: Inappropriate ioctl for device
