Subject: Re: [newbie] HP-8200 CD-Writer doesn't work
Also my cd writer was found during th)e installation and all the
cd-writing software detect the device.
I tried all speeds from 1x to 4x and all operations(writing,rewriting
and blanking) with both media(cd-r and cd-rw) and i had thesame result:
after some time (it can be a minute or less),the device st)ops operating
and the system hangs (I can't switch consoles and have to do nothing
but power off the computer).
Given that all works fine under RH71 i think it can be a matter of
the kernel(RH71 has 2.4.2 and LM8 has 2.4.3) or of hard-drake.

If you have the 8.0 version you may try downloading the cdrecord version in rpmfind.net. Highest version that is not cooker. This will then as for you to redetect the writer within gtoaster or cdtoaster etc. My cdwriter worked fine after install of the latest cdrecord package.
