Question Nautilus-cd-burner on Slack9.0 + DropLine2.4


Having problem using nautilus-cd-burner:

All my CD burning applications works (K3b, gcombust, etc..etc..), but i would like to do easy file burning with nautilus...

I only have the option of creating an iso file, no CDwriter is showing!

So I can create an iso from it and burn this iso file from K3b.. Works fine... But it would be much easier to use my burner from nautilus directly...

Here's my cdrecord -scanbus output:

================================
paul@Linux:~$ cdrecord -scanbus

paul@Linux:~$
================================

So, my device for my burner is : /dev/sr1
, /dev/sr0 is my DVD Reader...

Is there a way to tell nautilus-cd-burner to use the /dev/sr1 device (or 0,1,0 scsi device?)... Don't know much but it seems to check by default the first scsi device to be the writer?????????

Regards,
Ti-Paul.

Lightbulb Warning!

OK, I've found my problem... Just notifying you:

Nautilus-cd-burner is only working if you have your CDBurner located on the FIRST SCSI device. That means it must be /dev/sr0 or scsi (0,0,0) when checked with cdrecord -scanbus.

That's a little bit disapointing when you have your DVD reader as Master on the secondary IDE and the CDBurner as Slave on the same IDE....

You can't have your DVD Reader (or CDROM) SCSI-emulated.... And that's anoying when you use another application to COPY CDs... Because they used SCSI devices.... Argh!

If Gnome team could hear this... It musn't be a tough change to have nautilus-cd-burner check all the SCSI ids for CDBurner...

All of my CD burners are listed. One is SCSI on the *second* SCSI controller in my system (hard drives on the first), and the other one is an IDE burner using
the ide-scsi driver, on the *third* SCSI bus.

Maybe you have an older version?

The one problem I have is that the CD burner uses /tmp to store files (how stupid) and I cannot find a way to change it to something with more space.

That isn't stupid as it most likely uses /tmp since any user has rights to read/write in this directory. And I wouldn't say its the burner that uses this directory, most likely the program your using.

Question

This is funny that I have just tested to write iso image in Nautilus and it gave me this

Code:
You do not seem to have any CD recorder in your machine.
           Please verify your setup
