I've been using XCDroast for burning music CDs for the last 3 years or so and found it a brilliant program to use. However, in the last couple of days it has been unable to read CDs, telling me that there is no CD in the drive. At first, I thought that maybe the CDRW hardware was f***d
and was on the verge of buying a new one (it's fairly old and slow) but I have still been able to burn CDs using Adaptec software under Windows (something I would prefer not to have to do).
The following is an excerpt from dmesg which may or may not be relevant:
sr0: CDROM (ioctl) reports ILLEGAL REQUEST. sr0: CDROM (ioctl) reports ILLEGAL REQUEST. sr0: CDROM not ready. Make sure there is a disc in the drive. (There is) sr0: CDROM not ready. Make sure there is a disc in the drive. sr0: CDROM not ready. Make sure there is a disc in the drive. sr0: CDROM not ready yet. sr0: CDROM not ready yet. sr0: CDROM not ready yet. sr0: CDROM not ready yet. sr0: CDROM not ready yet. sr0: CDROM not ready yet. sr0: disc change detected. sr0: CDROM (ioctl) reports ILLEGAL REQUEST. sr0: CDROM (ioctl) reports ILLEGAL REQUEST.
I'm totally lost with this. The hardware, a Mitsumi CR-4802TE, is apparently sound under Windows and until a couple of days ago it did the business under MDK 9.2
Any ideas?

The notion that university is primarily about getting a qualification that will generate cash to enable you to pay back your fees and loans and spiralling debts is deeply insulting - but entirely consistent with the crass, stupid, book-blind, culture-hating government of a crass, stupid, culture-less, increasingly fractured society.
