<snip> Random thoughts: - Try getting the latest version of cdrtools, and compile and install them from source - From your lsmod output, ide-scsi isn't loaded? - The error message "Warning: controller returns wrong size for CD capabilities page." could be due to a firmware bug - The output from readcd you pasted seems to be fine. Does it read it correctly? - xcdroast doesn't seem to detect anything, it just starts cdda2wav. Although it seems that you snipped some output. Could you try without XCDRoast? That would give some more legible output as well as remove a potential source of error - "DGB10: readtoc: no MMC" seems to say that the drive is not MMC compliant. If this is an old Goldstar drive, you may need the gscd.o kernel module. - How is the drive attached to the system? What kind of mainboard do you have? - Does it work without ide-scsi, ie with ide-cd? If so, you could add the line options ide-cd ignore=hdx with hdx the device of your writer, to use the reader with ide-cd and the writer with ide-scsi. This is not a solution, but may be a workaround.
