I've tried with a CD-RW and it was ok. And I don't have other type of 
CD-R's around for the moment. However, I've talked with a friend who has 
the same CD-RW unit (LG) and uses the same media. He, however, uses 
Windows and Nero and he told me he didn't have any problems.

As I said in an earlier mail, the problem is solved by writing at a 
lower speed. So until I am able to figure out what exactly is happening, 
I will write at a lower speed.

Thanks!
