It is using cdrecord, and I was copying a CD that was in my DVD drive. It's also using burnfree if that makes any difference.

Here's the output of
Code:
cdrecord -dev=/dev/hdd -checkdrive

k3b works great, no messages at all

*edit

xcdroast is broken now, it fails with

Code:

cdrecord: Cannot allocate memory. Cannot get SCSI I/O buffer.


worked fine with previous kernels, works fine now as root, not users...off I go to find the solution to this problem.

growisofs users: please upgrade to the latest testing version of dvd+rw-tools (5.21.4.10.8 ). they already fixed dvd+rw-format in that release, so i'm thinking they probably fixed growisofs too.

please report back here and let me know if it works. if it does, i'll send in a request to make 5.21.4.10.8 stable

llsardonicll: that is usually just a cdrecord warning. does cdrecord work ok outside of xcdroast?

donjuan: fyi, i figured out those rejected commands - they are specific to plextor writers. i'll see what the linux block maintainer thinks about this sort of situation..

I am currently running the 2.6.10-rc2 kernel, and this is what I have concluded. I have a patch that I found for cdrtools that will allow a user to burn to a cd. This is a vanilla kernel that hasn't been patched, and cdrtools that has been patched. Here it is:

That should fix all of the cdrtools issues with the new kernels. However cdrtools-proDVD is broke still, and that isn't open source so we will have to wait on the owner to fix it. I was able to burn using dvd+rw-tools, and also using Gnome 2.8 CD-creator, and also the front end called Xcdroast also works.

could you please re-check step 5 in the original post, make sure that xcdroast / cdrecord are not setuid root, and confirm that you are not running as root user.

if you take setuid root off your cdrecord binary you will not need this.

undrwater: those commands are specific to plextor drives and i'm not sure what will happen about getting the kernel to permit them. i'll see what the block maintainer has to say when i next send in a patch.

I think it should have...I'm doing some compiling, so the buffer ran below 50%.

I ran is as a simulation. When I get a chance to try an actual burn, I'll post back.

PostPosted: Thu Nov 18, 2004 1:48 am    Post subject: I checked Reply with quote

None of my cd burning utilities are set as suid. I have already made sure that I had checked that, because I had read a lot of other posts. cdrtools-proDVD doesn't work. There is no suid set on it either. It errors out with
Code:
cdrecord: Cannot allocate memory. Cannot get SCSI I/O buffer.


That is the message I get with cdrtools-proDVD. I received the same message with cdrtools-2.01 until I applied the afore mentioned patch. Also dvd+rw-tools gave me this message until I upgraded:
Code:

unable to PREVENT MEDIA REMOVAL: Operation not permitted


So cdrtools-2.01 was fixed for me with the patch above. dvd+rw-tools was fixed by upgrading, and cdrtools-proDVD is still broke. Perhaps it has to do with my BenQ 1620 DVD+-RW DL drive. But what I understand from the code above is that it is trying to try to set the root user id for operation, and that isn't permitted. The kernel isn't broke, but the userland was broke by the patch.

So I went and ran cdrecord-ProDVD from bash, and this is the full error message.
Code:

cdrecord-ProDVD: Operation not permitted. prevent/allow medium removal: scsi sendcmd: no error

cdrecord-ProDVD: Operation not permitted. mode select g1: scsi sendcmd: no error

cdrecord-ProDVD: Cannot init drive.



This is an error message that I get from cdrecord, but it still works.
Code:

cdrecord: Input/ouput error.  write_g1: scsi sendcmd: no error

It will still burn the cd's though.

those error messages suggest that prodvd is opening the device as read only. not much i can do about this without prodvd source code, but it did appear to work for eradicator - maybe he was on a newer version (2.01a27).

i'm also not convinced about your cdrecord issue. yesterday i was talking to a developer with exactly the same problem who said his cdrecord binary was not setuid root. i pointed out that i can reproduce the error by putting the +s bit on, and in return he posted me the ls -l output which showed that it indeed it was setuid (his mistake!). taking it off solved the problem.

then again, you are on 2.6.10-rc2. i don't have a cd writing machine that i can test with that kernel right now. but at the same time i don't see anything that would change this after 2.6.9. also, the patch you applied is advertised elsewhere to make cdrecord work as root again. /me shrugs

i submitted a patch to allow the LOG_SENSE command that eradicator pointed out, and also was informed that the current command filter is only a temporary measure. eventually, the kernel will provide a mechanism where a user interface will allow commands to be allowed/disallowed, this will allow for those non-standard cases (e.g. some plextor writers)

Code:

-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 345156 Oct 30 15:22 /usr/bin/cdrecord

That is what my cdrecord is set to now. Now cdrecord-ProDVD worked until I upgraded to the latest version. Version 2.01_beta31 broke it, but it was working before that. Version 2.01_beta27 worked, but from my perspective at the time this bug showed up I had the command-filter applied. Then with that it broke, so right now it will remain broken.

Code:

-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 372924 Nov 14 22:23 /usr/bin/cdrecord-prodvd-2.01b31-i686-pc-linux-gnu
