Hi Andy, i finally noticed option -use-the-force-luke=noload and tried it with older versions which ignore it silently (very good) and with 5.21 which does not react on it either (somewhat disappointing).
I poked a few fprintf(stderr,...) into the code of 5.21 and found out : - no_reload indeed gets set to -1 in main() . - function media_reload() gets called twice : - once with no_reload == -1 which does not reach the test if (no_reload>=0) - and again with no_reload == 0 which reaches if (no_reload>=0) and the "Load" code :( Burner is LG GSA-4082B , kernel Linux 2.4.21-215-athlon (SuSE 9.0), ide-scsi. Command line : growisofs -use-the-force-luke -dvd-compat -use-the-force-luke=noload \ -Z /dev/sr0=/proc/self/fd/0 Input were various ISO images. I am ready for your testing instructions. :) -use-the-force-luke=notray leads to only one call of media_reload() with no_reload == 1 and working fine. Nevertheless i do not dare to use notray in general situations (unless the is no danger any more with not reloading before the first read attempt). Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
