CDRW problem under RH9;2.6

2003-10-01 Thread Rade Trimceski
I have a sony vaio grx600 laptop, running RH9 with kernel 2.6.0-test1. I
can't get my cdrom to work for reasons that are beyond me.
-
dmesg reports:

hdc: SONY CD-RW/DVD-ROM CRX820E, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
  Vendor: SONY  Model: CD-RW  CRX820ERev: 1.5k
  Type:   CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02
sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 0x/4x cdda caddy
Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.12
Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
Attached scsi generic sg0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0,  type 5
---

However, /dev/sr0 doesn't exist. I do have /dev/cdwriter which points to
/dev/sg0. When I try to mount I get /dev/cdwrite is not a block
device.

trying to mount /dev/hdc I get the message:
# mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrw/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc,
   or too many mounted file systems
   (could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
   ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)

Interestingly after I do this, if I dmesg I get few more lines:
# dmesg

ide-scsi: unsup command: dev hdc: flags = REQ_HARDBARRIER REQ_CMD
REQ_STARTED
sector 64, nr/cnr 2/2
bio f7fda4c0, biotail f7fda4c0, buffer ec52f000, data , len
3755991007
end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 64
isofs_fill_super: bread failed, dev=hdc, iso_blknum=16, block=32

When I try to mount sda, or sda1 I get the error, ... not a block
device.

I do have scsi emulation and scsi ATAPI cdrom compiled in the kernel. I
don't have ATA cdrom stuff compiled in...

Can anyone give me any pointers to how I can get this sony piece of crap
cdrom to work?

Thanks,
R!T

Que! USB CDRW Drive

2003-09-26 Thread Shesh Kondi
Hi,

I have a Que! USB CDRW connected to my laptop running RH 9, Kernel 2.4.22.

The CDRW is not being recognised by RH. Any idea if this device is 
compatible and if yes, how do I make it work?

Thanks

problem with cdrw drive

2003-09-11 Thread B McAndrews
I've installed rh 8.0 and have been running it for about 3 weeks now.  
But I've been having this irritating problem with my cdrw drive.  I can 
access it as a cd-rom drive, but
only for awhile.  Sooner or later, after I remove a cd and place another 
one in, it does not want to work anymore.  The message says something 
about a bad fs mount(I'm at work and this is my home machine, so I don't 
have the specifics with me).  I typcially shut down the machine and 
reboot again.  Most of the time this works (sometimes it
doesn't).  The grub.conf is  sets up hdc as an ide-scsi.  the fstab file 
looks fine.  Any thoughts?

You ARE unmounting it before opening the drive, aren't you?
In KDE (and I assume Gnome, too) you right-click on the cdrom icon on
your desktop, choose eject and it will be unmounted and ejected. Or
use the umount command if you're a command-line kind of guy. (note
there is no n between the u and the m.)

how to check if i have a cdrw in my machine

I have cd dirver in my system, i am not sure it is a simple cdrom or cdrw,

fastest way is probably to look at the kernel log (dmesg) and copy/paste the
model # of the drive into a search engine like google to see what comes up.

A scsi device may give more information, you can check the scsi chain
by using 'dmesg' as well as checking /proc/scsi/scsi

samples:

Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 06 Lun: 00
  Vendor:  Model: CD-R/RW RW7060S  Rev: 1.20
  Type:   CD-ROM   ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 03 Lun: 00
  Vendor: TOSHIBA  Model: CD-ROM XM-6201TA Rev: 1030
  Type:   CD-ROM   ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 05 Lun: 00
  Vendor: HP   Model: CD-Writer+ 9200  Rev: 1.0c
  Type:   CD-ROM   ANSI SCSI revision: 04

not hard to identify the CD-Rs there :)

  ok, there's definitely something weird in the latest kernel --
2.4.20-2.2 -- that affects (although not in a fatal way) which
config file will be used as a default if there is no current
config file.  (i've verified that the same problem exists
in earlier kernel source trees.)

 # mount /mnt/cdrw
 mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc,
or too many mounted file systems
 
 When mounting CDOM from command line as su:
 # mount /mnt/cdrom
 mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd,
or too many mounted file systems
 
 Additionally, when booting I see a problem:
 
 activating swap partitions: swapon: /dev/hdc3: No such device FAILED
 
 Now, I think that this behavior began after I edited fstab, BUT I did
 have the good sense to copy the contents of fstab before I messed with
 it and hdc3 was in the original so I am fairly sure that I did not
 accidentally add the 3

Actually, this is probably an artifact of having moved your drive from 
secondary master to primary master.  Your swap partition was probably 
/dev/hdc3, previously, but by moving your drive to /dev/hda, your swap 
partition is probably now /dev/hda3.

CDROM CDRW Probs (my apologies)

2002-12-26 Thread Thomas A. Hulslander
Hello all

I wanted to apologize for having made so many inquiries to you all
regarding my CDROM CDRW problems. I think maybe I outstayed my welcome
regarding this issue, as no one has replied for a time.

I am able to access these drives with Gnome so I will get by until I
stumble upon an answer for KDE.

May you all have a wonderful holiday season and a 2003 that is full of
peace, good health and prosperity.

My kindest regards and thanks to all who responded.

Thomas

CDROM CDRW not accessible

2002-12-25 Thread Thomas A. Hulslander

Mike (et al) thank you. Some lights are starting to turn on. For
example, I was thinking all wrong about the fstab--I realize now it is
like a config file. (I needed that)

Now I need to understand how to save changes to it using vi.

I'm getting there (slowly)

Thank you again.

-Thomas,

You can save changes with the command ':wq'
BTW, have you looked at VIM and the VIM Tutor?  Open a console and type 'vimtutor'
You can take some quick and easy lessons using VIM.

Thanks,

CDROM CDRW Not Accessible

2002-12-25 Thread Thomas A. Hulslander
OK. I found vi tutorial on line and found our that saving is done with
ZZ. Who would have guessed. I think that I have successfully added the
following to fstab:

/dev/hdc   /mnt/cdrw   iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/hdd  /mnt/cdrom  iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0

Now, however, when I try to access the CDROM I get the following:

Could not mount device.
The reported error was:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd,
or too many mounted file systems

And in webmin I get this:

mount -t iso9660 -o user,owner,ro,mode=444,kudzu /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom :
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd, or too
many mounted file systems

One other thing that worries me and may be contributing to this is the
fact that when I run vi to access fstab I get messages about multiple
fstab swaps being found. hmmm ??

Any suggestions? I'd really like to get this cleaned up and feel good
about the system again. It's feeling sloppy and really bothering me.
Excruciating detail is very much appreciated.

Thanks all!

one thing you could look at is mounting by hand from the console.

First check that /mnt/cdrom and /mnt/cdrw exist ( ls /mnt )
if they do then just try the basic 

# mount /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom
# mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrw

see if that works. We are all assuming that hdd, and hdc are the devices
in the dev folder, but that may not be true. Can you give a listing of
Dmesg??

# dmesg (at the console prompt

Have a good one

Re: CDROM CDRW Not Accessible

He's already noted that he's put the CDRW as secondary master, and the 
CDROM as secondary slave.  Those are, by definition, /dev/hdc and/dev/hdd, 
respectively.

Subject: next question on kernels -- the config files
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


  some of this has come up before, but i wanted to make dead
sure i got it right.

  occasionally, someone asks where is the config file for
the currently running kernel?, and the answer is that a
number of config files reside in the kernel directory
/usr/src/linux-???/configs.  you just have to choose the
one that corresponds to how your machine was installed.

  but there are more config files than prebuilt binary
kernel RPMs, which leads one to ask:

   1) for the config files that appear to match a binary
   kernel RPM, is this *exactly* the config file that
   was used to build the corresponding RPM?

   2) what are the other config files for?  just suggestions
   or starting points if someone wants help getting going?

  i've also noticed the config file .../arch/i386/defconfig
in the kernel source directory.  what does this represent?
it's part of the actual kernel-source RPM, so i would guess
it's the config file to be used for a kernel configuration
if there is no .config file.  is that correct?

  and finally, for those who hadn't noticed, there is a
kernel config option to actually build the config file 
into the new kernel itself.  that config file can (allegedly)
be extracted with the script .../scripts/extract-ikconfig,
again in the kernel

Vi (vim) is so rich in features that the bottom of the screen likely 
isn't big enough for most tastes.

Don't know if it'll satisfy your desire for a list of critical 
commands or not, but you can issue the :help command while in the 
editor to search for any kind of help you'll need. It shouldn't take 
more than a few seconds to answer your ZZ, zz,  question.

Just be sure to spend some time with the navigation instructions at the 
opening help screen.

Unless he is using scsi emulation for the CDRW, that changes things. In

I have the same setup, cdrom as secondary slave, CDRW as secondary master.

At least they did not send you to emacs :)

If you are using X try the gui version of vi, gvim  I use it with the
-reverse option and several commands in ~/.vimrc to get a rich syntax
checking, autoindenting, gui text editor that is hard to beat. In fact I
have aliased vi to gvim -reverse.  

I HATED all the cryptic stuff I hade to learn when I first started using
linux but it is now second nature.  Part of the problem is that it is
such a rich environment that ther is a lot more to learn.  At least
there is documentation available for most stuff.

BTW there are a couple of vim related packages that need to me installed
if you are going to use gvim.

vim-common-6.0-7.13
vim-X11-6.0-7.13
vim-minimal-6.0-7.13
vim-enhanced-6.0-7.13


You should be ableto find a vi cheat sheet on the web and every how to
use linux book I have has a vi section.

 Subject: next question on kernels -- the config files
 Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
 
   some of this has come up before, but i wanted to make dead
 sure i got it right.
 
   occasionally, someone asks where is the config file for
 the currently running kernel?, and the answer is that a
 number of config files reside in the kernel directory
 /usr/src/linux-???/configs.  you just have to choose the
 one that corresponds to how your machine was installed.
 
   but there are more config files than prebuilt binary
 kernel RPMs, which leads one to ask:
 
1) for the config files that appear to match a binary
kernel RPM, is this *exactly* the config file that
was used to build the corresponding RPM?
 
2) what are the other config files for?  just suggestions
or starting points if someone wants help getting going?
 
   i've also noticed the config file .../arch/i386/defconfig
 in the kernel source directory.  what does this represent?
 it's part of the actual kernel-source RPM, so i would guess
 it's the config file to be used for a kernel configuration
 if there is no .config file.  is that correct

Re: CDROM CDRW Not Accessible

2002-12-25 Thread Mike Burger
If he's using the ide-scsi module, it would, without any help, set up both 
drives as scd0 and scd1...the cdrw, being the master, would no doubt be 
scd0, with the cdrom identified as scd1.

What is required to get and IDE CDRW drive working under Red HatLinux?

2002-10-18 Thread Carl Riches

We are spec'ing out our new Linux desktop configuration.  There is a lot
of demand for CDRW drives.  In the past, we've had no problem with SCSI
CDRW drives, but there is considerable cost savings going to IDE for this.

I've looked at various resources about this, but haven't found anything
really current.  It looks like either the kernel needs to be re-compiled
or changes need to be made to modules.conf, both after the initial Linux
installation.  Is this correct, or does Red Hat Linux automagically set
this up at installation?

Re: What is required to get and IDE CDRW drive working under Red Hat Linux?

2002-10-18 Thread Tony Dyson
If you're using Grub, it's really easy. Below are a couple of lines from
my /etc/grub.conf file:

snip
title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-17.8.0smp) root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-17.8.0smp ro root=LABEL=/ hda=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi
snip

My system sees the CD as /hda  the CD-RW as /hdc. That's all. No
re-compilation necessary.

scsi aborting command due to timeout (CDRW)

2002-09-07 Thread Sean Staats

Hello.
I'm trying to get ide-scsi to work on my CDRW.  Whether I use ide-scsi
as a module and allow modprobe to do the loading or have ide-scsi compiled
into the kernel, the result is the following:
SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
scsi0: SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 0, scsi0, channel 0, id
0 lun 0 Inquiry 00 00 00 ff 00
And the system locks up.

Here is the hardware configuration:
IDE0/master = 40GB IBM Deskstar 60GXP
IDE0/slave = 40GB IBM Deskstar 60GXP
IDE1/master = Sony CRX145E CDRW
IDE1/slave = Asus 50x CDROM
mobo is MSI K7T266 Pro2 (ATA100) with Athlon XP2000+

I've tried setting the CDRW as slave to the CDROM but still doesn't work.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Re: CDROM/CDRW ide-scsi troubles in RH7.3

2002-09-06 Thread Sean Staats

Hello again!
I still cannot get the CDRW working.  Here is what I just tried...
Removed 3Ware IDE-RAID card
IDE0/master = 40GB IBM Deskstar 60GXP
IDE0/slave = 40GB IBM Deskstar 60GXP
IDE1/master = Asus 50x CDROM
IDE1/slave = Sony CRX145E CDRW

FYI - mobo is MSI K7T266 Pro2 (ATA100) with Athlon XP2000+

Tried fresh new install.  The installer froze up after the following
was printed to the screen (might not be verbatim):
Uniform CDROM driver version 3.12

I reset the machine.  At the install boot prompt typed linux hdd=ide-scsi
This time the installer succeeded in initializing and the install process
completed successfully.  
When the machine rebooted I passed no extra arguments to the kernel (I
verified that hdd=ide-scsi is NOT being passed as an argument).  Once
the system finished Enabling swap space it completely froze up.  This
is happening at the point where modprobe ide-cd is called in the rc.sysinit
script.  
I disconnect the CDRW drive, and reboot the system with no problem. 
I added options ide-cd ignore=hdd and alias hdd ide-scsi to modules.conf.
 
I then reconnected the CDRW drive.  Again, I am not passing in the hdd=ide-scsi
parameter when booting and the system boots up just fine; however, cdrom1
(hdd) is not mountable since no drivers are assigned to it.
I rebooted the system and THIS time I pass the hdd=ide-scsi parameter
when booting.  The system AGAIN LOCKS UP after enabling swap space, but
instead of modprobe ide-cd causing the hangup, modprobe ide-scsi
causes it.  ARGH!
I took out the CDRW drive and connected it as a slave to the CDROM on
IDE1 in a HP Vectra VL400 machine (not mine), running RH7.3, and it works
with no problems.  I can even burn CD's with it.

Apparently, the 3Ware controller is NOT the issue.

I'll put the CDRW back into my machine and set it to be the master device
on IDE1 and disconnect the CDROM drive and see what happens.  But I'm
beginning to wonder if there is an issue with the IDE drivers and/or
the ATA100.  Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

Re: CDROM/CDRW ide-scsi troubles in RH7.3

2002-09-04 Thread Sean Staats

After reading through the SCSI-2.4-HOWTO, I've learned that adding sg
and sr_mod to /etc/modules.conf is unnecessary.  The reason for this
is the ide-scsi module is dependent upon sr_mod module - and executing
'modprobe ide-scsi' will cause modprobe to discover that sr_mod needs
to be loaded before ide-scsi can be loaded - so that is what modprobe
will do.
I've tried the following:
modprobe -v -n ide-scsi
which tells me that it is going to first load sr_mod then ide-scsi.
So I manually execute:
'insmod sr_mod' which succeeds
'insmod ide-scsi' locks up the system after reporting the scsi: aborting
command due to timeout message.
I think that the 3Ware controller is causing modprobe to lockup my system
while trying to load the ide-scsi module.  I'll disconnect the 3Ware
controller and reinstall on just one of the drives connected to IDE0
on the mobo and see if I can get ide-scsi working.

CDROM/CDRW ide-scsi troubles in RH7.3

2002-09-03 Thread Sean Staats

Hi, everyone!

I have a system with a regular CDROM drive (hdb) AND a CDRW drive (hdd).
To get RH7.3 to install, I had to type linux hdd=ide-scsi at the
install boot prompt.  The install completed successfully; however, when
trying to boot, rc.sysinit hangs when executing modprobe ide-scsi.
If I disconnect one of the CD drives, it boots with no problem.  I've
tried adding the following to /etc/modules.conf:
alias hdb ide-scsi
alias hdd ide-scsi

but still no luck.  I've also tried appending hdd=ide-scsi to the
kernel arguments in /etc/grub.conf but still just results in rc.sysinit
hanging at modprobe ide-scsi.
I've recompiled the kernel to not use ide-cd AT ALL and to use the
ide-scsi module.  This allows the system to boot, but the CD drives
aren't recognized as SCSI and the /dev/cdrom* point to /dev/hdb and
/dev/hdd.  ARGH!
Any ideas on how I can get this fixed?
Thanks for your valuable time!

Make sure you have the appropriate extensions installed for iso9660 (part
of the kernel).

iso9660 uses 8.3 format. The MS Joliet and Rockridge extensions are a
couple things you'll prolly want to have loaded, or else you won't be
seeing anything other than 8.3. Remember, the way the file names appear on
a written CD depend on what the OS supports (I'm not sure how much of it
depends on how it was written).

'cdrecord' only writes an image to the disk; the file names get
decided when creating the filesystem image for the cd (the input you
feed to cdrecord).

 but the Files in CD are displayed in 8.3 file format not long file name
Assuming you've used mkisofs to create the filesystem image, do you
know about/use the '-r' or '-R' option (use RockRidge extensions;
which allows usage of long file names etc.)?

If you want to use the CD in an M$ system as well, maybe also add '-J'
to write M$s proprietary Joliet filesystem.

DMA for a Plextor CDRW?

2002-04-05 Thread David Kramer

I just got a Plextor PX-W2410TA  24/10/40A burner*.  The documentation 
says 
that it's best to use it in DMA mode.  

Some initial poking around leads me to believe that I can use hdparm to 
change that.  Is it really that easy though?  Is there any disadvantage?  
What's the worst that can happen if I try it?  Do I need to put the call 
to hdparm in /etc/rc.local, or is there some standard config file to put 
it in?

While I'm at it, I assume it does no good if your hard drive is also 
configured for DMA, right? 

My motherboard is a Spacewalker HOT-569A, and the manual says it can do 
UDMA 33, so I assume that won't be a problem.  The hard drive is a WDC 
400EB, which looks like it supports DMA also, so maybe I should turn it on 
for that too.

* Before y'all get jealous, I'm replacing my ancient Early Adopter 
Special Philips OmniWriter, with 2X write.  They advertised it with a 2MB 
buffer but it really only has 1MB.  SCSI I centronics interface.

Actually since it's a CDRW he really wants to use scsi emulation. He had

You're right of course.  I had forgotten about that. Thanks for catching my

not burn them, which is probably not what he wanted.

You need to do both.  modules.conf determines the modules you need to load -

It was partly the answer.  The two most common boot loaders are LILO and

I'm asking about the ability to put the parameter into a file on the system,
like /etc/modules.conf, that gets referenced at boot time.

Why does it have to be in the boot loader?

 When I try to mount the cdrom drive, it states dev/cdrom unknown

 accurate. On the driver section, it says ignored. This is telling me
 that it can read the info about the cd-drive.

Cross posting my reply to the Enigma list:

I'm not sure it applies to cdrw using scsi emulation, but cdrom
difficulties under 7.2 are a known problem. See:

Applying the updates may solve the issue. The current kernel is 2.4.9-13,
and there are a lot of other updates as well.

The command:
depmod -ae
Might also help.

/dev/cdrom1 and  /mnt/cdrom1   CDRom

/etc/fstab  table as follows:

- Could mount CDRW from CDRom desktop icon but could read its content.

- Could mount on Console Window and read CDRW with following command;

mount /dev/cdrom -t udf /mnt/cdrom
or
mount /dev/cdrom1 -t udf /mnt/cdrom

mounting CDRW on CDWriter desktop icon only reading following 2 files;
- autorun.inf
- udrinst.exe

Any suggestion on modifying /etc/fstab for remedy.

Thanks in advance.

ATAPI CDR and SCSI CDRW

2001-02-06 Thread fred pasteck

Hi. I have an ATAPI 4x2x32 CDRW used as a reader and a
SCSI Plextor 12x CDRW. The drives are in a 2.2.18 box
with software mirroring. The ATAPI drive is a slave,
where the master is one of the disks in the array.

Even when the system is completely idle, I'm unable to
do direct CD-to-CD copies without making a frisbee.
I'm pretty sure I was able to do this in the past, but
can't figure out why I'm unable to do this now.

I can also make frisbee's using 2.4.1 on the same box.
It seems during the burning process, the ATAPI drive
is reading the whole time, despite the fact that it's
a 32x reader, and the data being sent to a 12x writer.

What could be the problem?

thanks.

It showing up as hdc once and later as sr0 is fine. That is normal
behavior. As for the obscure error message, the only way I get that is
if I attempt to mount a blank CD or an audio CD. By any chance is this
what you were trying? I have seen other people who have had this problem
with good disks, and the only resolution they came up with that I have
seen was upgrading to a very recent kernel:-( See
comp.os.linux.hardware, Jason White on 7/17/2000, on dejanews or where
ever.

If you are trying to mount a good data disk, then the only other thing I
wonder about is whether there are any other devices on the IDE cable
that has your CDRW? If so, try disconnecting it (hopefully it is not
your boot disk). Perhaps the ide-scsi driver has problems with non
ide-scsi devices on the same cable.

You can also try executing "dmesg" (which is different from
/var/log/dmesg) after attempting the mount, and if you are really lucky,
perhaps there will be some additional helpful information displayed.

Re: CDRW Track Titles Incorrect

2000-06-21 Thread Romain Kang

Your "CD player app" is probably using a CDDB server, whose keys are
based on the total length of the disk and the track start locations;
the ISRC numbers are hit-or-miss, especially with older CDs.

If you record in "track at once" mode, there will be silences inserted
between the tracks, which will change the CDDB key computed from the
disc.  Try recording in "disk at once" mode (cdrecord -dao ...).

For what it's worth, my prefered tool for simply copying an audio CD is
cdrdao (locatable through freshmeat.net), which does the deed in two steps:
# cdrdao read-cd --device 0,3,0 --datafile bach0507.bin bach0507.toc
# cdrdao write --device 0,4,0 bach0507.toc
(0,3,0 is my Plextor CD reader, 0,4,0 is the Yamaha burner).  The resulting
disk is usually correctly identified, except when the original had less
than 2 seconds of lead-in, in which case all bets are off.

Ricoh CDRW Problems -

2000-06-02 Thread Timothy Reaves

I have a 7040a.  I installed it, used it to write 30 or 40 disks, no
problem.  I decide to start ripping my CD collection and putting them on
my server.  I get through about 30, and then I start getting errors.
CDParanoia just wont rip anymore.

So I think maybe the drive went bad.  So I get another.

This one riped about 15 disks, now it won't anymore.  I know the
CD's aren't bad, because Grip - what I use to fron CD Paranoia - will
play them, and they sound fine.  But when I try to rip, I get something
like the following in my messages file.

Jun  2 08:16:14 double kernel: sr0: CDROM not ready yet.

Actually, when the first disk wouldn't rip, I got:

Jun  1 13:20:29 double kernel: sr0: CDROM (ioctl) error, command:
UNKNOWN(0xbe) 04 00 00 55 28 00 00 01 f8 00 00

Re: CDRW and kernel detection

2000-02-16 Thread Robert Glover

That's exactly what mine does too: same kernel, but a CDRW instead.  On the
bright side, it does burn CD's though.  I would like to know why it's doing
this and if there's a way to stop it other than sending kernel logging to a
file and ignoring it.

IIRC, one thing I did notice is that when I use insmod to force the kernel
to keep sr_mod loaded, that after 30 minutes or so the kernel reports 0 SCSI
devices and then I can no longer access the CDRW as a CDROM.  At that point
I have to 'rmmod sr_mod' and then everything is fine again.

Is this normal?  Or is it Abbey Normal?

Re: CDRW and kernel detection

2000-02-16 Thread Jake Johnson

The reason for this is that you have SCSI-emulation on.  This is just a
product of this.  Don't worry about it!

I fixed this by turning off LUN probing in the kernel. Now it recognizes
only two scsi devices.

cdrw problem

2000-01-03 Thread matt boex


just installed my yamaha cd-rw.  everything worked
fine, i burned a data cd no problem.  next time i turn
the machine on, i try to delete a cd and xcdroast says
there is no cd in the tray.  i look in
/var/log/messages and it says the "tray is open or..."
(don't have the exact error but will send).  tray was
closed and cd was in.  

what changed-

the only thing i can think that i did was before i
turned off my machine the first time, the tray would
not open.  i did a eject command, then it opened.  

any ideas?

(will send the whole error when i get home.)

data cds out of cdrw?

2000-01-02 Thread Jacob Schmude

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi

How do I get data cds to be read in my CD-Rom drive as well as my cdrw
drive? I can get audio cds working finally with cdrdao, but this program
doesn't seem to write data cds despite it saying it can do just that. I
tried track-at-once mode and packet writing using cdrecord, but they
couldn't be read in my cdrom. Anyone know what to do to get this to work?
Note: if I need another writing tool, it *must* be text-based and not
require X for any of its functions.
