For the past several weeks, I have been having problems with cdrecord and SCSI timeouts. I start to burn a CD-R, either using xcdroast or simply cdrecord, and it gives me errors as such: cdrecord: Input/output error. write_g1: scsi sendcmd: no error CDB: 2A 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 1F 00 status: 0x2 (CHECK CONDITION) Sense Bytes: 70 00 04 00 00 00 00 0A 00 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 Sense Key: 0x4 Hardware Error, Segment 0 Sense Code: 0x09 Qual 0x00 (track following error) Fru 0x0 Sense flags: Blk 0 (not valid) cmd finished after 14.368s timeout 40s Sense Bytes: 70 00 00 00 00 00 00 0A 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 write track data: error after 0 bytes cdrecord: Input/output error. close track/session: scsi sendcmd: no error Writing time: 19.402s CDB: 5B 00 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Average write speed 244.0x. status: 0x2 (CHECK CONDITION) I googled for a fix, and the only thing I was able to find was to turn off swapping, which I tried. It worked for a while, bu then, it gradually even that stopped working. I used to be able to burn the mini-CDs (the 186MB jobs), but that too has stopped working, and now it seems to have stopped working altogether. I am running current versions of xcdroast and cdrecord from sid, 2.0+a07-1 and 0.98+0alpha13-2 respectively, having just done a dist-upgrade last night, but this has been occurring with alarming regularity over the past 2 or 3 upgrades. System specs are a 1GHz Athlon, Asus A7V133 MoBo, 768MB RAM, 2*30GB Maxtor HD (hda and hdc), 30GB Quantum HD (hdb), 120GB WD HD (hdd), LG CED-8120 CD-RW drive (hde) and Samsung SD-616T DVD drive (hdg) Anybody got any pointers on getting this working? The movies to burn are starting to pile up...:) Thanks, -- --Brad ============================================================================ Bradley M.
