Trying to burn a folder full of stuff to back it all up. I've tried both Brasero and K3b, and neither will do the trick, even though they both successfully simulating the burn. Not getting much feedback on why the burn won't work - K3b says OPC failed, probably doesn't like the medium. I've tried to do the job with plenty of CDs now, so I don't think it's down to dodgy disks.
View 3 RepliesI am unable to burn data cd's. I tried both k3b and Brasero. Both of them seems to be burning but about 70% through both say unknown error and ejects the cd. I am using cd-rw. I tried different cd's but the error is the same.

When I tried to open both CD's the files appeared to be present but were all corrupt.Braso works fine for burning music CD's but I can't get it to work for data.here is the error log from Brasero:

I'm running UbuntuStudio 9.1 on my Toshiba Satellite laptop, and all other aspects of the operating system and software are fantastic - absolutely love it!I am having a serious problem with Brassero though for recording to CD. I can erase any of my re-writable cd's just fine using it, but when it comes to trying to burn a cd with it - Brassero goes through all the motions of putting the info onto CD, finalizing and then briefly displays the box saying "completed" but then immediately goes into "creating image checksum" and keeps busy doing that into forever - last time I stopped it after 35 minutes! that's absurd.
Maybe it's because the laptop has a CD/DVD combo drive, not sure, but I need CD burning software, and that is for sure.Can someone recommend a different software package that I can use to burn CD's covering everything from data to music?(or possibly help me fix whatever is wrong with Brassero?)
My DVD player attached to my TV is picky. Burn CD's (with avi files) at 8X and it plays them. 16X and it complains about bad disk. Every time. In karmic, I can only get cdrecord to burn at 16x.
Here's the command:
cdrecord -dev=/dev/scd0 -speed=8 -dao -pad -v something.iso
And it burns at 16x instead of 8x. Command issued with root privilege. Identical hardware under CentOS 5.x and it burns at 8x, like I asked it to. I'm all SATA if it matters. What do I need to do to get the version of cdrecord with karmic to burn a data CD at 8x? For whatever reason, CDs burned at 16x just don't work in the DVD player attached to my TV.

When I try to burn a data DVD with k3b it errors out telling me...
Unable to find the following files: /home/ion/.kde4/share/apps/RecentDocuments/Mon oncle d'Am+�rique (Resnais, 1980).srt.desktop
...but when I invoke (as root)...
# ls -al home/ion/.kde4/share/apps/RecentDocuments
...it retruns...
ls: cannot access home/ion/.kde4/share/apps/RecentDocuments: No such file or directory
So is k3b lying or ls?
Before you ask, fsck gave no errors. But Find files/Folders from the Application Launcher menu finds and lists it in the RecentDocuments directory as above, then tells me it is "Inaccessible". Delete does not work from GUI or CLI.
the software will go through the motions and say burn successful and all the disc itself will even have look like its been written (with the burn circle and all), but when its put into the drive afterwards its still empty. My fstab has
Code:
/dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom0 auto users,rw 0 0
/dev/sr1 /mnt/cdrom1 auto users,rw 0 0
for my drives. Both of them do this, wondering if anyone has any idea why it might do this. I know the drives both work fine.
Forgetting bad past experience (in debian i386 and amd64), I have newly lost a new DVD in trying to create a data disk with brasero with debian i386. After successful simulation at the lowest speed, burning failed and I expect that the disk is no more good (this occurred in the past). In the past I complained with debian, getting no answer.
In contrast, I tried k3b with full success. However, as a gnome user, installation of k3b brought in so much of kde that proper use of gnome was prevented. Can anyone tell of an installation of k3b that does not hinder gnome? In particular not the startx procedure (as I normally work without calling the x server).
Now, I use Fedora Core (version 8) with core linux OS 2.6
I have some file data with size about 2G and I want to burn (write) this file to DVD rewrite.
I know linux OS can install software to burn data to DVD, but I don't have permission to install more software. I only use command line over Terminal (Gnome Terminal).

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe purchased a new database system at work last October, ditching the old system because of a lack of support from the vendor. This is a retail Point of Sale and Backoffice database system. I am not sure what system the new one runs on, but the system we replaced was a Firebird data base. The reason I am posting is because we are now in need of the information contained in the old database which was not completely imported into the new system.
Basically the problem is this: The database in on a Windows XP system and I found a copy of SQL Manager Lite 2008 on the system, which after quite a bit of studying, I figured out how to extract the database into a removable file. I have this file (178MB) on a USB stick in a file called Backoffice.fbd.
My studying suggests to me that I can get into this database with MySQL. I have never used this and have no clue how to do this. All I want to be able to do get into the database and create tab deliminated spreadsheet files for each of the database sections (Customers, Repairs, Sales History, stock files, etc.) Is it possible to do this with Ubuntu and MySQL and if so, can expert suggest one or two things to get me started. While a guided tutorial would be nice because I am not an expert, I am willing to learn on my own if someone could point me in the right direction.
Where apart from ~/.kde4/share/apps/kmail does kmail keep account data, such as login data/names of pop/smtp servers? I wanted to install an entirely clean version of kmail, so I uninstalled/re-installed kmail via YAST. I manually deleted ~/.kde4/share/apps/kmail. After installing kmail I found that the account data of my Yahoo account were still listed in the kmail configuration panel. Shall I delete the Yahoo account within kmail prior to uninstalling the kmail package?

I have some data files that should be distributed with my program. Using dist_pkgdata_DATA in Makefile.am, I get these files installed to /usr/local/data/share/package-name. The problem is that data is read-only, and my program needs to modify it. Playing with dist_sharedstate_DATA, dist_localstate_DATA, dist-data_DATA varibles, I got different installation directories, like /usr/local/com, usr/local/var, but data is always read-only.
How can I distribute modifiable data files with my package? I need some common directory for all users, or maybe local data in a user directory.
