With this naming scheme one could reasonably assume that v1.10 is the 
stable version and v1.11alpha is the development/unstable version and 
so should not be included in a stable release of a distribution.

Why do you talk about the series 2.4 of the Linux kernel? The discussion 
is on the alpha name tage that you add to version 1.11 of cdrecord.

Again, I don't see the link with the VM changes in the 2.4 Linux kernels.

You urge everyone to use the latest alpha release. This is very 
inconsistent.

I beleive (and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one) that there is noting 
alpha about the latest v1.11 of cdrecord. If you would drop the alpha 
name tag every Linux distribution that does not already include v1.11 in 
their latest/next release would do so. The number of emails about problems 
with v1.10 (on this list) would decrease.

Hello,

I think your problem is related to supermount and has no link to cdrecord 
and your cd-burner. Are you able to use 'ls' with a regular cd?

I can't help you with any supermount problem because it's one of the first 
thing I disable on my Mandrake machine. If it's a supermount problem you 
could send your question to http://www.mandrakeexpert.com (Mandrake 
support channel).

The magic is called pam. I doubt that it's exclusive to Mandrake.

The only thing available on his web site is a i386 binary rpm. What Danilo

could recompile the src.rpm on his alpha platform and get an alpha.rpm. I
guees that he is using an rpm based linux distribution on his alpha.

Is anyone using a Teac CDW516EB?

2001-09-09 Thread Denis Pelletier

Hello,

I'm about to buy a new CD-RW. My first idea was to buy a Plextor but
considering the price, a Teac CDW516EB (16x10x32x ATAPI) seems a better
buy. Is anyone using this model?

A small question for Jörg. From what I read in the source of the cdrtools
you don't know if cdrecord can use the Burn Proof mode of Teac drives.
Anything new about that since the latest release of cdrecord?

Thanks.

Re: ide-scsi problem!

I'm a bit lost now. I taught that the main request of Joerg is that the
kernel should treat all ATAPI cdrom as ide-scsi devices dy default so
Linux users would not need to give the option hdX=ide-scsi when booting
if they want to use a cd burner. If someone would want to use the ide-cd
module, they would have to use the option hdX=ide-cd.

If it is so then I don't see the need for a new IDE and SCSI
implementation. Am I missing something?

Hi,

cdrecord can't use bin/cue files. Cdrdao can.
