K3B, growisofs, and dvdrecord not writing DVDs


When I try to record to a dvd I get errors:

growisofs:

:-[ WRITE@LBA=56d0h failed with SK=5h/ASC21h/ACQ=02h]: Invalid argument build_dd: 22224&2KB out @ average 0.5x1385KBps
:-( write failed: Invalid argument


Everything was working before christmas. Now cd records at about 6x where previously it was at about 20x. DVD records for a few seconds at about 0.5x and dies.

I don't even know where to look.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm running Fedora Core 4.

Linux Version 2.6.15-1.1831_FC4smp
Two 797MHz Intel Pentium III Processors, 1GB RAM

It seems at least one other has reported this;

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla....cgi?id=177099

It seems that k3b-0.11.23-3 is not compatiable with the kdelibs-3.5.0-0.1.fc4, some have found sucess with updating to k3b-0.12.4a-1.xcyb.fc4.i386.rpm from;

http://rpms.xcyb.org/fedora/4/stable/

And k3b-0.12.10-0.fc4.1 is available and is reported as working;
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedo.../msg00087.html


Personally I perfer k3b-0.12.12 (the latest) myself;
