As near as I can remember it was, "How can I initialize > an unformatted cd so that it can be used, i.e. written to?" AFAIR there were some programs for Windows claiming to "format" a CD and to make it available as a normal disk under explorer. I recommend you stay away from such stuff. These disks are unreadable without that special software. For normal writing you don't need to "initialize" the disk just use k3b (or some other similar software) and put the blank disk inside when asked to. > Speaker is dead. It does work using the live Kubuntu disc, but before Please show us the output of: dpkg -l alsa* lsmod | grep snd and if you have time (and mood) it might help if you also post the 'lsmod' from Kubuntu.
