Hello, I have a CD/RW (FreeCom Traveller) connectable via CardBus and USB. If I use CardBus, everything is fine and I can burn via cdrecord / k3b.
If I connect via USB2.0 (using an USB2.0 CardBus adapter) I still can burn via cdrecord - but k3b (or cdbakeoven) do not recognise it as a burn device. The reason seems to be that for usb, + cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info CD-ROM information, Id: cdrom.c 3.12 2000/10/18 drive name: sr1 sr0 drive speed: 1 24 drive # of slots: 1 1 Can close tray: 1 1 Can open tray: 1 1 Can lock tray: 1 1 Can change speed: 0 1 Can select disk: 0 0 Can read multisession: 1 1 Can read MCN: 1 1 Reports media changed: 1 1 Can play audio: 1 1 Can write CD-R: 0 0 Can write CD-RW: 0 0 Can read DVD: 0 1 Can write DVD-R: 0 0 Can write DVD-RAM: 0 0 while for CardBus connected I see 'Can write CD-R(W)' set to 1. Difference between CardBus and USB is also, the using USB the burner is on device 1,0,0 , while using CardBus I have it on 0,1,0 - but should that make a diffference ? I do not know why cdrecord can identify the device as burner - but it does: + cdrecord -prcap -dev=/dev/sr1 cdrecord: Warning: not running as root user, fs= option ignored. scsidev: '/dev/sr1' devname: '/dev/sr1' scsibus: -2 target: -2 lun: -2 Warning: Open by 'devname' is unintentional and not supported.
