I've never used that because it takes special CD/DVDs compatible to be written on using lightscribe but I have set up my widows to use it.
There was a separate driver just for the lightscribe capabilities itself, then needing software as well to pick the picture or setup the whatever one wanted on the CD/DVD.
I've sense pulled my DVD writer out for a hdd in my laptop.
So I'd think you'd need to have that writer driver installed in wine somehow as well as the software to tell the dvd writer what to do.
without that diver for the lightscribe capability itself I do not think you'd be getting anything done.

I do not have a dvd installed anymore to try and figure out anything. But I'd think the software would rely on the hardwhere to tell it where the dvd is first.
I have this.
Code:
#/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,owner,ro,comment=x-gvfs-show 0 0
Slackware puts this in the fstab and comments it out, for that just in case one needs it it is already there.
placing that into your fstab might help
as you are getting this

My guess is that when you run it in wine it needs to have dos type cd support running. I might be tempted to use QTlightscribe instead of trying to get wine to work with a dvd burner. https://sourceforge.net/projects/qls...ar.gz/download
This is so unlike the example you gave I dare not add to it in the manner you suggested.
Am I accessing the wrong file or the wrong version of the file?
that line for your cd/dvd is just a simple mount source - destination point like every other line in your fstab.
Even though it looks like your system has a lot to do, Me. I'd set aside wine, because it is still having to comminate with your CD/DVD if that is not even attached to your main system, Linux then how can wine see it regardless of what you do with wine?
make sure that the directories that the fstab line for the dvd is actually in your system.
If /dev/ is an auto create directory thing then it will just create that sub-directory for your cdrom. But I think it needs to be there ahead of time. Creating that sub-directory is easy enough.
you need to get your DVD to mount first. Yes?
if your base system is not mounting the dvd then nothing else can use what is not there. WINE is a end point man. The resources have to be there first, like in Vbox. if the usb port is set up to use in Vbox and the host cannot see it or something is not mounted on that same usb port then VBox cannot use it either, because Vbox is a end man.
I'd get my dvd to mount so I can use it in Linux first. then try the Linux software. Eiterway Linux has to be able to mount that dvd first so it can get to it and then let wine see it. hope you understand that line of commination that needs to take place here.
that fstab line for dvd/cd is no different then the other lines in your fstab telling it what to mount off of and where to put it in the system so you or apps can get at it.
Code:
#source mount point file type how to mount it dump
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,owner,ro,comment=x-gvfs-show 0 0
I have three rpms I've tried to install with zypper.
Code:
-rw-r--r-- 1 crb999 users 825987 Feb 12 12:14 lightscribe-1.18.27.10-linux-2.6-intel.rpm
-rw-r--r-- 1 crb999 users 9756232 Feb 16 15:05 lightscribeApplications-1.18.15.1-linux-2.6-intel.rpm
-rw-r--r-- 1 crb999 users 622177 Feb 12 12:27 lightscribePublicSDK-1.18.6.1-linux-2.6-intel.rpm
All sorts of problem messages appear
Code:
linux-dxa1:/home/crb999/Downloads # zypper in lightscribePublicSDK-1.18.6.1-linux-2.6-intel.rpm

They tell me that they are installed already! Cant find them!
Most disturbing is the report that the KDEApps are skipped.
Where would I find them? How could I use different pointers as these seem to be tied up in the rpm?
