Thanks, Michael. I believe you are running Debian unstable. I'm using Debian testing. But I did find the file in my system:/usr/share/doc/cdrecord/README.ATAPI.setup This is a very good article. Just for the archive, according to the article, using the ide-scsi is the only solution in my situation. Anybody having eject problem in Debian testing? PS. the "cdrecord -msinfo" is working fine now. It was my mistake. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
