Dear Slug

   I have some  questions for which I would appreciate some advice.

At present I am running Xandros V3.1 which is quite good except that I am having trouble with the following:

Is it possible to partially fill a CDROM, then remove the CDROM from the drive, then later on re-insert it and carry on recording from where the previous recording had left off. In my case, I wish to add photos to CDROM 's such as to use the full capacity available?

Yes it is possible, it is called a multi-session. Not being a Xandros user, I don't know if the burning software that is embedded in the xandros file manager (modified konqueror with modified k3b) can do it, but this is no problem because you can download K3b through Xandros Networks (apt-get). The limitation is that you cant start a multi session in k3b and continue in another burning program, you must continue with k3b until it is finalised.


What is the difference between 'track at once' and 'disc at once' recording?

Disk at once is one continual burn, where as track at once pauses between tracks. Horses for courses, you use them for different reasons.


Where can I find info about 'Quanta' web authoring tool ? At what stage of development is it?

Last time I used quanta, it was a great editor but still too buggy for my liking, that was more than a year and a half ago though, so while I don't really have an answer, I would guess with fair certainty that it would be quite stable by now. Lots of people rave about it. Also have a look at bluefish!

Quanta's web page is http://quanta.kdewebdev.org/index.php

It states

"Quanta Plus is a highly stable and feature rich web development environment"

The latest version is 3.4.0
