Re: [PLUG] cd recording frustration

I read the thread with Jeff's similar problem.

Do an lsmod and make sure you don't have ide_scsi loaded.

ide_scsi is not loaded, but neither is ide_cd.

Also check
your kernel config and make sure you have the right options for IDE
CDROM access enabled, and not the SCSI CDROM options. In other words,
make sure your kernel is right for the job.


Dumb question: how do I check this?

I can dig up more detail if needed.


Does it help to know that I burnt a CD of 12 tracks using

   cdrecord -v speed=10 dev=/dev/hdc -audio music/*.flac

supposedly, it "succeeded", and the CD did, indeed, have 12 tracks -- but they were 12 tracks of white noise?

Do a google search for "kernel 2.6 and cdrecord".  This topic came up
recently.  This is a place to start.

I finally got a CDR/RW drive for  my linux machine.  Bought an LG and when it
had problems, I switched it with the Samsung that was on the Windows machine
(and working well).

2.6 kernel
cdrecord -scanbus doesn't find either drive.
according to /usr/share/doc/cdrecord/README.ATAPI.setup, I should use
"device=/dev/hdc" instead of the scsi numbers, like "0,1.0" if I am using the
2.6 kernel,
Did that and though scanbus still doesn't work, cdrecord correctly identifies
the drive using "cdrecord -prcap"

Tried a number of cdrecord front ends -- xcdroast, gcdroast, gcombust,
MrBurns and ECLiPt Roaster (my favorite if any of them worked).  Best I can
hope for is a CD with the correct number of tracks but of white noise instead
of music.  Same using cdrecord from the command line, e.g. cdrecord -v
speed=10 dev=/dev/hdc -pad -audio music/*.flac

I have read at least 6 How-tos without any luck. Any suggestions?
