I have encounter this same problem since installing Lucid and K3B. Today I tried to duplicate the bug prior to reporting here and managed to erase one CD-RW without any problems. In trying to erase a second and sebsequent CD-RW K3B produced the following errors: "1. Probably a buffer underrun occurred, 2. please choose a lower burning speed, 3. Blanking error, 4. Sorry no error handling yet."
The speed choices for blanking are only "auto". All further attempts to blank a number of different CD-RWs encountered the same error or other errors such as: Devices ----------------------- HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8481B C102 (/dev/sr1, CD-R, CD-RW, CD-ROM) [CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW] [SAO, TAO, RAW, SAO/R96P, SAO/R96R, RAW/R16, RAW/R96P, RAW/R96R] [%7] HL-DT-ST DVD-RAM GSA-H50N 1.00 (/dev/sr0, CD-R, CD-RW, CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD-R DL, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD+R DL) [DVD-ROM, DVD-R Sequential, DVD-R Dual Layer Sequential, DVD-R Dual Layer Jump, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW Restricted Overwrite, DVD-RW Sequential, DVD+RW, DVD+R, DVD+R Dual Layer, CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW] [SAO, TAO, RAW, SAO/R96P, SAO/R96R, RAW/R16, RAW/R96P, RAW/R96R, Restricted Overwrite, Layer Jump] [%7] System ----------------------- K3b Version: 1.91.0 KDE Version: 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2) QT Version: 4.6.2 Kernel: 2.6.32-22-generic Used versions ----------------------- cdrecord: 1.1.10 cdrecord ----------------------- scsidev: '/dev/sr1' devname: '/dev/sr1' scsibus: -2 target: -2 lun: -2 Error trying to open /dev/sr1 exclusively (Device or resource busy)... retrying in 1 second. === last message repeated 4 times. === Error trying to open /dev/sr1 exclusively (Device or resource busy)... giving up.
