I used to be able to burn DVD-R with my DVD writer via K3b and now I cannot. I am using :- cdrecord-2.01-25 cdrdao-1.2.0-18 libdvdcss2-1.2.9-1 dvd+rw-tools-7.0-0.pm.0 libdvdnav-0.1.10-14 radvd-0.9-11 libdvdread-0.9.7-0.pm.0 k3b-0.12.17-100.pm.0
When trying to burn a data dvd K3b opens a popup window saying Found Media: DVD-R Sequential (empty) Please insert an empty or appendable Double Layer DVD+-R medium into the drive - I have a new TDK DVD-R 4.7GB Data/Video DVD in the drive, and I am trying to burn 4.4GB of data. I'm using SuSE 10.1 and kernel Linux 2.6.16.13-4-default #1 Wed May 3 04:53:23 UTC 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux By the way, I've tried a different DVD writer as well. Any suggestions? Thanks Phil
Well we are several who had this problem. solution working best seems to have kernel ...20. suse 10.2 (you have ....13. ) and the second part a DVD-ROM that works with the latest SUSEOPEN linux. My internal DVDrom is too old. Bought an external BTS didn't work either, bought a MEDION new model and this work without problems.
Your 'solution' sounds awfully (and frighteningly) like the old M$ solutions everyone used to (and will have to now, with Vi$ta out) give! It was almost all anyone would offer when they had no idea what to do about an M$ problem so they'd just say "Buy better hardware". Let's hope Linux isn't coming to that stage. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
