Mates,
Starting from 11.2 after some kernel updates, up to last 11.4, I am not more able to use my CD drive to burn media.
Beside horrible noise generated from the drive, attempting to read the media tracks and or setting the parameters, all the tries to burn an iso image are vanes.
The problem is world-wide present in many linux distro as Ubuntu, Arch, Debian,... so is clear that is kernel related.
Don't know about that... My box burns CD and DVD media with no problem. Has for a long time, 11.3 and now 11.4 have not any problem for me. But my burner is also an old IDE PATA type and not SATA. It is unclear what kind of hardware you have.
Wonder if somebody has been able to find a solution to this annoying issue and what are the latest news in regards to (may be ) a kernel-patch.
I doubt you need any kernel patch. Most of the rest of the world can burn CD/DVDs and don't need any kernel patches. If you have in the past been patching your system willy-nilly that is more likely to be the cause of your problem. The first wedge to drive in for a divide and conquer approach is you somehow need to eliminate hardware from the picture. If you can prove the burner can work in another machine and/or OS then you can concentrate on software being the problem. Until you definitively split the problem you could be just continually keep going around in circles. -Mike -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
