Could everybody with a cd-rw drive try the following program, and see if works (ie produces lba output) or if it complains about I/O error (and dumps a kernel message saying so, please send that too btw).
Can you please be a bit more specific on the circumstances: With pktcdvd loaded, udf loaded, with pktsetup done, with mounted, ...
Sorry, just do it on the "normal" CD-ROM device -- /dev/hdc, /dev/sr0, whatever your device is. Nothing extra setup, loaded, mounted, etc. The reason I want folks to test it, is that if this works on some cd-rw drives I can effectively provide caching hints to the drive when doing the read gathering. It doesn't work on my Sony or Plextor (the only ones that are hooked up atm), but does on my Hitachi DVD-RAM and Toshiba DVD-ROM... -- Jens Axboe
