Re: [expert] xcdroast woes
I delved a little deeper into the problem. I tried the latest xcdroast rpm off of cooker (xcdroast-0.98-9mdk.i586.rpm). This failed. I went to xcdroast's home page and flipped through the changelogs. I noticed in a few different places that the scanbus parser code had been modified. Seeing that the latest version is 0.98alpha9, I checked what was cooker's version and it came out to 0.98alpha6. I tried installing the latest version (packaged for RedHat 7.1) downloaded from xcdroast's site and it worked. (I had to ignore decencies to do so.) This gives me the impression that the problem that I have had all along is a parser problem that was fixed a couple of rev's ago. I would recommend that the cooker teem dump xcdroast 0.98alpha6 and go with at least 0.98alpha7 before releasing mdk 8.1 unless there is some problem that I am unaware of. For added info when I run `cdrecord -scanbus` this is what I get: [root@tick RPMS]# cdrecord -scanbus Cdrecord 1.10 (i586-mandrake-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2001 Jörg Schilling Linux sg driver version: 3.1.17 Using libscg version 'schily-0.5' scsibus0: 0,0,0 0) '3ware ' '3w- ' '1.0' Disk 0,1,0 1) * 0,2,0 2) * 0,3,0 3) * 0,4,0 4) * 0,5,0 5) * 0,6,0 6) * 0,7,0 7) * scsibus1: 1,0,0 100) 'HP ' 'CD-Writer+ 9100 ' '1.0a' Removable CD-ROM 1,1,0 101) * 1,2,0 102) * 1,3,0 103) * 1,4,0 104) * 1,5,0 105) * 1,6,0 106) * 1,7,0 107) * Gregor Maier wrote: On 25-Jul-2001 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I recently installed a 3ware controller in my system.
