USB-CD/DVD writer problems with late 2.6 kernels
Hello,
I have an external CD/DVD burner attached with USB2 or Firewire. It works fine with Fedora2 with 2.6.5-something kernel. With Fedora3 or Fedora2 with later kernel (2.6.9) it does not work anymore. I have searched the net for info and found that many has experienced similar problems for kernels >2.6.7. "cdrecord -scanbus" gives weird results, and when trying to burn, cdrecord hangs. So far I have not seen any explanation or solution published anywhere, so I try to ask this forum. With the recent 2.6.10 kernel "cdrecord -scanbus" works on my machines, but burning still hangs. This line is repeated in the syslog; SCSI error : <0 0 0 0> return code = 0x70000 after a long time (around 15 minutes) the burning continues and seems to be succesful from the printouts, but the CD is corrupted. While crdecord hangs it can not be killed, not even with "kill -9". Since I can use USB or Firewire I have tried both. The result is about the same, which makes me believe that the problem is in the SCSI emulation layer, or cdrecord's use thereof. Any information about this problem is greatly appreciated. Please note that this is about external USB/Firewire burners only! I can burn CDs on an ide-internal burner without problems, so "hdc=ide-scsi" and alike will NOT solve this problem.

P.S.
Oh, and I am running as "root" so this is not the known "suid" problem with cdrecord. L Ekman |
