Indeed I have a standard IDE interface on a i865-based board.

Trying the close-utility, the about same thing happened as when
the first session close was carried out:
kernel: scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid ..
scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 UNKNOWN(0x5b) 01 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
kernel: hdc: irq timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }
kernel: hdc: DMA disabled
kernel: hdc: ATAPI reset complete
kernel: hdc: irq timeout: status=0x80 { Busy }
kernel: hdc: ATAPI reset complete
kernel: hdc: irq timeout: status=0x80 { Busy }
kernel: scsi0 channel 0 : resetting for second half of retries.
kernel: SCSI bus is being reset for host 0 channel 0.
kernel: hdc: status timeout: status=0x80 { Busy }
kernel: hdc: drive not ready for command
kernel: hdc: ATAPI reset complete
..
kernel: hdc: lost interrupt
and a bit later about 80 times within a few seconds:
kernel: ide-scsi: CoD != 0 in idescsi_pc_intr
kernel: hdc: ATAPI reset complete
And the medium now changed to status (after reload):

I tried another medium from the same box. It recorded with 8x (4x yesterday,
only difference was that yesterday I recorded some DVD-R before), but when
it came to session close, the same thing happened - result is unusable.
There really might be some IDE problem. But why does it only occur with
certain media, and in a very reproducable way (no random errors)?
Somehow there must be a big bad thing somewhere in the system.
After all, there seem to be people that do not encounter that kind
of problems constantly.
Tired of this for the moment,
Thanks for trying to help.
