Problem on recording DVD-Rs.



Hi all,

I'm using Debian Sarge with:
- kernel: 2.4.26
- mkisofs: 2.01+01a01-2
- dvd+rw-tools: 5.21.4.10.8-1
- window manager: kde 3.3
- Drive LG DVD DVDRAM GSA-4163B

dmesg:
CSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
hdc: attached ide-scsi driver.
scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
 Vendor: HL-DT-ST  Model: DVDRAM GSA-4163B  Rev: A100
   Type:   CD-ROM                             ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 40x/40x writer dvd-ram cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray

hdparm:
hdparm /dev/hdc

/dev/hdc:
IO_support   =  0 (default 16-bit)
unmaskirq    =  0 (off)
using_dma    =  1 (on)
keepsettings =  0 (off)
readonly     =  0 (off)
BLKRAGET failed: Invalid argument
HDIO_GETGEO failed: Invalid argument

Till now I always saved data DVD's without problem, but now, when trying to save
DVD-R I'm getting always that media was not recognized.
I tried this initially with k3b and after on command line.
Command issued:
growisofs -Z /dev/scd0 -R -J -V Some some/
Output:
:-( /dev/scd0: media is not recognized as recordable DVD: 0

After this command, I got the following error on messages.log:
cdrom: open failed.

I tried with DVD+RW and CD-ROM and everything went OK.
Command: dvd+rw-mediainfo /dev/scd0 - with DVD-R inserted
Output:

I alreay googled a lot and the only reference I found was on:
http://lists.debian.org/cdwrite/2004/03/msg00170.html which I already checked,
but I don't have that file.

I've been trying to solve this problem for about 2 days without success :(.

Please help.
