Need help with cd-r drive in Unbuntu
I'm running Unbuntu 7.10 and I have a cd-r drive, specificly a
Teac cd-w54e. My problem is, is that everytime without fail that I insert a blank cd-r disc and try to burn a file Brasero tells me "There is no disc in CD-W54E. Please insert a blank disc." WTF this is so weird! Some one please help me bet my cd burner working. Thanks |
re: cdr
it could be that an other application is using the disc (eg nautilus-cd-burner) or it's mounted, kill the process using the burner or `umount` the device
list pid and kill # pstree -p # you can also use `ps aux` # killall nautilus-cd-burner # this was an example you could use `kill` and the pid as argument instead or try $ sudo su # echo "sg sr_mod sg_tgt" | xargs modprobe then try it again or try another application like `xcdroast` or `cdrecord` (now `wodim`) a command line based burning application # cdrecord -scanbus scsibus1000: 1000,0,0 100000) * 1000,1,0 100001) * 1000,2,0 100002) 'TEAC ' 'DW-224E ' 'A.0H' Removable CD-ROM 1000,3,0 100003) * 1000,4,0 100004) * 1000,5,0 100005) * 1000,6,0 100006) * 1000,7,0 100007) * # cdrecord dev=1,2,0 image.iso |
K3b is a great burning application, if you've got it available. Ok, it's KDE software, but still..most modern distributions come with the needed KDE libs to get it running. If you've got trouble with your burning software, try K3b and see if it's about the program or the device/something else..
Also after you insert the disc, wait a small moment and then try. I noticed that in some cases (like the Nautilus integrated cd writer app in Gnome) if you put the disc in and start burning, it fails with an odd reason - waiting a moment seems to "cool down" the drive, and then the burning works :) |
still dosen't work!
Ive tried everything you mentioned, but I still cant burn to disc! It's like the drive only see's a blank cd-rom, not a blank cd-r disc! any other suggestions?

Actually Unbuntu dosent see the burner as a burner!

I have a F7 with the same TEAC drive and the same problem with Nautilus. I tried the GnomeBaker application and it worked!
