I had this CD-RW drive burning CD's with my last kernel (2.6.5) and I used it's config file to start off the new one (2.6.8 )...which was about a month ago now.
It is a Sony CD-RW CRX225E.
No matter what program I try with (although they all ultimately use cdrecord), and no matter whether I use DAO, SAO, TAO, or RAW writing modes, I get an
| Code: |
Device seems to be: Generic mmc CD-RW.
Using generic SCSI-3/mmc CD-R/CD-RW driver (mmc_cdr).
Driver flags : MMC-3 SWABAUDIO BURNFREE FORCESPEED
Supported modes:
cdrecord: Drive does not support TAO recording.
cdrecord: Illegal write mode for this drive.

error (just replace TAO with whatever method I am trying to use).
I've tried with different blank discs, too (to make sure it was really a blank disc, and not corrupt or something).
I'm not really sure what is going on here. Any suggestions?
gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.8-r1
cdrecord 2.01a28
thanks! |

I'll just go sit in a corner for not doing a search first. A known bug in 2.6.8. Well, what fun.
::sigh::
cheers! |

Technically, not a kernel bug but rather a change that has been made in the kernel that has broken user programs that have been wrong all along.
