My suggestion: change broken fork wodim to the original cdrtools... here is what worked for me. Use at your own risk.
Replacing wodim with the genuine cdrtools (tested on Kubuntu hardy) The issue: http://cdrecord.berlios.de/private/linux-dist.html "If you are not running the original software, get recent original software from the "Download recent" or from the "Download latest" location. Unpack, compile by running "make" and install. Make sure that all programs that send (SCSI) commands to CD/DVD/Blu-Ray drives are installed to be suid root. If you are running cdrtools frontends like k3b and others and do not like to replace these programs with original versions, you should remove files like /usr/bin/wodim, /usr/bin/genisoimage, /usr/bin/icedax, /usr/bin/readom and replace them by links to the original software." Download latest cdrtools from http://cdrecord.berlios.de/private/linux-dist.html Unpack CD to the directory cdrtools is in. sudo make sudo make install sudo make clean Files are installed to /opt/schily (you may want to change their ownership to root:root) Move the following files (some will be links) from /usr/bin to a junk folder... cdrecord genisoimage mkisofs readom wodim Create links: /usr/bin/cdrecord --> /opt/schily/bin/cdrecord /usr/bin/genisoimage --> /opt/schily/bin/mkisofs /usr/bin/mkisofs --> /opt/schily/bin/mkisofs /usr/bin/readom --> /opt/schily/bin/readcd (correct?) /usr/bin/wodim --> /opt/schily/bin/cdrecord /usr/bin/readcd --> /opt/schily/bin/readcd /usr/bin/mkhybrid --> /opt/schily/bin/mkhybrid /usr/bin/cdda2wav --> /opt/schily/bin/cdda2wav Related Links: http://ge.ubuntuforums.com/showthrea...86#post5216386 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...3b/+bug/149076 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...it/+bug/226650 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5552123 -- I can't write a cd https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/149076 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
