Hi David, Hi all, in the beginning I had some trouble with brasero and my Toshiba Satellite notebook and the combined CD/DVD drive. Then I came across this gentoo article http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Toshiba_Satellite_P100 where they say that "Add combined_mode=libata to kernel parameters in order to setup dma transfers for optical drive. Otherwise, playing or recording DVDs doesn't work correctly. " the strange thing I never had CD issues, only DVD burning was a problem. I would suggest to investigate this with your drives, see if you can burn CDs. On the other had it seems unlikely that you having 3 burners have trouble and are alone out there with the combined mode thing. :-\ Cheers, Sebastian -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
