HP CD-Writer USB does not work now
 
OK, I cannot understand what is happening in my system.

I have a HP CD-WRITER 8210e USB. So I wanted to install on my linux system. So first of all I recompile my kernel with:

SCSI CD-rom support
USB mass storage support
HP CDWRITER 82xx support
SCSI generic support
USB generic support

All these option have been built-in into the kernel, and not as module.

After this, I installed modutils, usbmgr and cdrecord packages. Then I ran usbmgr and some drivers loaded automatically (scsi_mod, sr_mod and usb-storage). Then I hotplugged the writer and executed cdrecord -scanbus with good result. My writer was recognized and I can use any software (like xcdroast without problem)

But after blanking a CD, an error occurred and my system hanged out. So I reboot it and now my writer is not recognized. When I execute cdrecord - scanbus, give the next message:

cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open /dev/pg*. Cannot open scsi driver

My usb-uhci is up (checked by cat /proc/interrupts) and cat /proc/scsi/usb-uhci-0/0 gives the right manufacter writer, but cat /proc/scsi/scsi says that no device is attached.

"dmesg" says that all drivers (usb.c, uhci.c and hub.c) are loaded and SCSI emulation for USB mass storage is running.

Comparing the /var/log/messages with /var/log/messages.2 (lasts days) is that in this one appears:

kernel: Vendor: HP Model: CD-WRITER+ 8200 Rev :1.0f
kernel: Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI Revision: 02
kernel: attached scsi cdrom sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0 lun 0
kernel: sr0:scsi3-mmc drive: 24x/24x cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray

The current message log doesnṫ appear these, so I suppose that scsi driver is not loaded. I cannot understand why it worked perfectly 24 hours ago, and now it is not possible.


How can I fix this?

Thank you in advance

It´s solved.

I have recompiled my kernel with theb same options I had before and now it works. Uncomprehensible but real.

Thanks

I, too,'ve been having problems with a HP8200 USB CD Writer. It doesn't appear to matter whether it is RH9, MDK9 or FC1. Typical errors state that the controller has wrong size for the CDRW page. I kept having to modify /etc/fstab in RH9 after the CDRW locked up on some job to change the /dev/cdrom1 to /dev/scd0. I 'upgraded' to Fedora Core. Seriously unimpressed. It trashed the box, didn't make symbolic links /usr/src/linux, no modules.dep, no USB. I kissed my data goodbye and did a fresh install which was better. But that's not the problem. In RH9, I used to be able to burn intermittently, by tinkering, having to reset the CDRW every ten minutes. Now, all I can manage is part of the MDK10 CD1 iso. I've also got a Gentoo2004 iso just itching to be burned and installed/(built?). So I tried going back to RH9 but my #1 CD now has errors on it! And it hasn't even been near the CDRW. Maybe I need an exorcist not a sysadmin. I then went back to MDK9 (because I had the disks already burnt). I had exactly the same issues. Both distros like to mount whatever filesystem it finds on the CD in the drive. That would explain the 'lack of exclusivity'? Do I remove the entry from fstab and mount manually or not at all? Maybe I just need to tweak the setting? I've started it all over again. Fedora Core 1 installed. Up2dated. New kernel. First, I'll try something simple - erase a CD with cdrecord.

#cdrecord dev=0,0,0 blank=all

It appears to have worked. I took it out put it in the DVD/CDROM, can't see a thing. Put it back in the CDRW - Fedora pops up a Window with burn:/// in it. I dismiss it. Its going to use cdrecord anyway.

Okay now then, how about that Gentoo ISO?

#cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=0,0,0 -data install-x86-universal-2004.0.iso

It worked. Booted Gentoo - nice splash. Not quite as easy to install as RH or MDK, maybe later (but soon my precious, soon).

Okay, I'll try MDK10 CD#1.

#cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=0,0,0 -data Mandrakelinux-10.0-Community-Download-CD1.i586.iso

It hangs. Maybe I should blank=all new CDs too. Its reset CDRW and reboot time.
But first I kill the process and then

#cdrecord dev=0,0,0 -inq

I notice the now familiar message -

Warning: controller returns wrong page 29 for CD capabilities page (2A)

If I run cdrecord dev=0,0,0 -inq again it disappears but I'm not so sure that output is reliable either.

Rebooted. Back to step 1.

#cdrecord dev=0,0,0 blank=all

Hangs. Reboot. Reset. All nothing. Exacty as before except this time somehow different. Is it the CDs? Something has happen in modprobe...

I did a diff and found ide-scsi missing in modprobe -c. What do I do? Where do I append scsi ? What is the grub equivalent of lilo.conf?

(They said add as much detail as possible - but this is too much shirley?)

Thanks,

got it working?
 
Excuse me but did you get that cd-writer working? I am testing one right now and i am havbing problems when i try to burn cdcrw media(it complains that i am using high speed media in a low speed device) and it just cant burn any cd-r from ISO files...

my dmesg is:

How can i know where it was mounted?

I just burned an ISO but i cant eject it. There were a few errors while burning... I am lost.

I appreciate any help,

Better late than never
 
Hey I did get it working only for cdrecord scsi support to go missing in 2.6 kernel. Its okay under 2.4 and you have to set the speed pretty slow
