Hello, I am using Debian Sid on a Toshiba A100 laptop. My CD/DVD writer functions very well on 2.6.23.16 and 2.6.24.2.
I tried 2.6.25-rc2-git7, and I was very sad to notice that when I tried to write a CD, wodim started to output the following: "Warning: controller returns zero sized CD capabilities page." Since I was able to use this CD/DVD writer successfully with previous versions of Linux, I believe that this is a regression in 2.6.25-rcX series. I am willing to try patches and to do pretty much anything to debug/fix this problem. Thanks in advance. Note: I am attaching the output of wodim to this e-mail. - zkopex --- output of wodim --- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# wodim -v dev=/dev/sr0 blank=fast hardy-desktop-i386.iso wodim: No write mode specified. wodim: Asuming -tao mode. wodim: Future versions of wodim may have different drive dependent defaults.
