After struggling for yonks to make ubuntu rip an audio cd I think it is time to give up.
Have tried serpintine, k3b, gnomebake & Brasero.
Various error messages and reports. Have tried ubuntu forum but still
no luck. For info my error reports are all over google search but not the answers...
Going at the problem from another direction could someone suggest a version of linux that will make an audio cd on my system.

If someone spots something to change on my setup I would be happy to do so as everything else with ubuntu works okay ! Otherwise a new linux to try....
I wonder if you don't have the proper permissions to use the programs associated with burning, such as cdrecord. What are the "Various error messages" you received? I'm not familiar with GnomeBaker or Serpentine, but K3B has an option under Tools -> K3B Setup... to adjust the permissions.
for k3b the best is to create a new group "burning" where usually root and perhaps now you are in as users....
But I am wondering since with my opensuse k3b was asking to create this group at the very first starting of the program and with that is nearly working out of the box...
