Hi all, I recently upgraded my cdrecord from version 1.8 to 1.9. After having done so, whenever I ran cdrecord -scanbus, it hung the entire computer (keyboard, mouse, video, etc.) I was able to get things to work again by downloading a special version of the generic scsi device from the cdrecord website and recompiling the kernel/modules. Note that this was not a suggestion on the part of the cdrecord website, they happened to have a link to the sg source that they claimed was a better match, so I took the chance and used that version. My question is this: Is this a normal sort of thing to have to do, or did I miss some simpler solution (my background is nt, not linux)? caveat: this is not a redhat specific question.
