I was at the SuSE hardware database, saw many CD -RW that are listed as supported , but pages don't go into detail on how well they work with linux.
Are there some better know rewritable cd burners for linux? How about DVD, are there any that play DVD as well? I realize DVD isn't supported in linux, but if it played in windows and the cd-rw worked in linux, that would be ok.
This is a christmas present for our son, currently running SuZSE 6.3, any recommendations will be sincerely appreciated.
If you check out the brochures of different makes, you may find that versions are available for both IDE and SCSI. If the same number occurs for both types, it's highly likely that the module ide-scsi.o works for the IDE version. HP's are very good candidates for your shopping bag.
