Hi Bob, If the CD is not burned at 4X speed, it can cause horrors. In 9.10 I could burn at that rate, in 10.04 I cannot. As a part of these 'funnies' that happen, one of the tech guys told me that he could not burn at 4X in 9.10 but can do in 10.04 .....
I have learned to 'cheat' and use CD-RW's or DVD-RW's which keeps the burn speed down. Oh, and I've used brassero etc., it seems to be a kernel issue but one that is really hard to nail down. Regards, Phill.
