I am having major problems getting a GUI CDR program working. About the best I can seem to find is xcdroast. Whenever I try to write to a cd, this is the error I get:

Calling: /usr/lib/xcdroast-0.98/bin/xcdrwrap CDRECORD dev= "0,1,0" fs=4096k -v -useinfo speed=4 -dao -data "/tmp/track-01.img" ...

scsidev: '0,1,0'
scsibus: 0 target: 1 lun: 0

cdrecord: Drive does not support SAO recording.

cdrecord: Try -raw option.
TOC Type: 1 = CD-ROM
cdrecord: Illegal write mode for this drive.
Using libscg version 'schily-0.6'

I assume you meant cdrecord -scanbus :)

I haven't tried burning cd's with Gentoo yet, but I'll try out that version of xcdroast and see if I have the same error.

You just need to set it to TAO. That should take care of it. Not sure what SAO stands for, maybe sector at once. TAO stands for Track At Once and is teh mode most drives are designed to write in.

Almost, it stands for Session-At-Once
Quote:
# Mode 2: SAO. With Session At Once different tracks (for instance audio songs) are written at once without stopping or repositioning the laser of the writer before the end is reached.


Well TAO should work, but remember you can't write a continues (live) audio cd this way because all tracks are rounded to a sector on disk.

DAO, Disc-At-Once is almost the same, but all data is then delivered to the recorder (Raw-mode).

btw. most packages are depending on cdr-tools (cdrecord) package to write disks, but maybe you need to select a driver yourself. Hard to believe your cdrecorder doesn't support DAO,...... Check you manual, don't know what recorder your using, probably not a big name... Cya lX.

It is an older, OEM 4x burner, so it may very well be possible that it doesn't support it. However, it worked fine under Wincrash...

You may also want to try DAO. That is what Nero is set to for me by default. Then there is TAO and the SAO and whatever else. I think I miss spoke when saying that TAO is the one to use. It should work but DAO is the most common mode. I havn't tried to burn in gentoo yet but xcdroast is set to DAO already by default. Hope ya get it working.

You can try
Code:
cdrecord driver=help
maybe its not automatically detected, or you need to override a setting.

Maybe its the -dao setting, cdrecord help says something about this getting obsolete in future, and it clearly states SAO in the cdrecord info......

Think my old TEAC 4x (SCSI) worked (well it did some time ago........)

Cya lX.
