They covered the Lite-On LTR-12101B, Plextor PX-W1210A, PX-W1210S, PX-W1610A, Ricoh MP-9120A-DP and Teac W512E. All the burners worked fine on Linux, and the burn-proof feature worked too. However they continually said this burn-proof was not necessary under linux anyway. No mention of some burners that are very common here, espec no mention of Sony. I have just bought a Sony CRX-1611 so we will soon see. Brian -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
