Re: plextor px-708uf: cannot get disk type
Um, thanks for the info on dvdrecord, but I really need to know (1) why the
program (cdrecord-ProDVD) isn't working and (2) if there is a quick way to
remove cdrtools from /usr/local (see below for both).
Thanks,
Tom

Joerg, I removed the RHL9 RPMs of cdrecord, cdrecord-devel and
dvdrecord, and I ran a make INS_BASE=/usr install for cdrtools. I put
the cdrecord-ProDVD binary and a wrapper in /usr/bin. Unfortunately,
again, this makes no difference:

cdrecord-ProDVD: Cannot get disk type.
======================================
As before, there is a blank DVD+R from Memorex in the drive. To recap:
I am now using the most recent versions of cdrtools (2.01a25),
cdrecord-ProDVD (2.01a24 for linux), xcdroast (0.98a15), and
dvd+rw-tools (5.16.4.8.5). I upgraded the firmware to 1.04. I can burn
DVD+Rs using growisofs, but I get the above error with cdrecord-ProDVD.
The kernel module cdrom was constantly sending a message that it
couldn't find tracks on the blank DVD+R, so I removed magicdev and the
offending KDE Autorun.desktop command. This clears up the kernel
message, but doesn't help cdrecord. There are no other kernel errors
that I can see.
...
Finally, I installed cdrtools in /usr/local before I realized that
xcdroast wanted it in /usr. Is there a command to uninstall it from
/usr/local, or do I have to do this by hand?
Thanks,
Tom
