have a major problem writing CDs under SuSE 9.2.
It has been discussed here:
http://www.ale.org/archive/ale/ale-...1/msg00861.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-kern...1/msg00303.html
Apparently the only solution is to wait until a 2.6.9 kernel is released by SuSE . But some people have found a "work around" - is this simply burning as root? Because that doesnt work for me
linux:/home/george # uname -a
Linux linux 2.6.8-24.10-default #1 Wed Dec 22 11:54:27 UTC 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
I get this with cdrecord -scanbus
scsibus0:
0,0,0 0) 'SONY ' 'DVD RW DW-U10A ' '1.1d' Removable CD-ROM

and this in the logs:

So...why wont k3b detect it?
I have tried writing as root, and it has detected the drive occasionally. It just spews out tea coasters though. Seems the drive starts writing then gives up (no more light flashing). In k3b It detects a "ghost" of my DVD drive as the CD-writer although it is detecting that it is at /dev/sr0. If I refresh, it disappears and will not let me add a device at /dev/sr0
