Yes, repeatedly.  Using K3B amongst others.

Never seen this error.  You sure that the Cue file is correct for this bin and 
that both are in a directory that is writeable and that you have correct 
permissions.  Also, K3b needs to have a temp directory that is writeable as 
well.

... what others?!? It looks to me that k3b is just a frontend to cdrdao, and 
that looks like being the culprit, as I used the command line:

/usr/bin/cdrdao write --device 0,0,0 --speed 24 --overburn -n -v 2 --eject 
--remote 31 /home/scm/downloads/.bin 

as per the log I sent, with the same "effect" (i.e. errors).

So - is there any other program that would write bin/cue?

There is a commercial Linux burning application called Gear Pro Linux from 
gearsoftware.com that supports bin/cue.  I have used it in the past but not 
lately.

Well, just as a test, let's try something else assuming that you have other CD 
burning applications on your machine.

Use bchunk to convert the bin/cue file to an ISO and then you can either mount 
the ISO as a loopback to make sure that it is good or you can burn the ISO 
using another app to make sure that your devices are all set up properly.  If 
you can burn the ISO but not bin/cue, we can begin to look at other 
possibilities for a cause.

If you don't have bchunk installed you can get it here:  http://he.fi/bchunk/

command is :  bchunk *.bin *.cue mybin  which will create a mybin01.iso file.
