Can't write DVDs under Sarge



My newly purchased Pioneer DVD-111D will not write DVDs on my Debian
Sarge Pentium 1.8 GHz system. I am using HP 8X DVD-Rs and trying to
write at 4X.

I applied the dvd-record patch to cdrecord.  It writes between 30 and
200 MByte to the disk and then stops.  The written area on the DVD is
clearly visible. 

The same thing happens if I add the -dummy option, but of course there
is nothing actually written on the disk.

The same drive and program writes CD-Rs no problem.

I have also tried growisofs and dvdrecord with similar results.

Here are the results of a dummy write, as well as some information from
the -checkdrive and -prcap options.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

DUMMY WRITE RESULTS

Note: The -force option gets me past the message
"cdrecord.mmap: Cannot get disk type".
