Ubuntu :: No Success Using Wodim And Cdrecord
May 29, 2010
I tried to use the command line to burn an iso image onto a cd.
According to the instructions, which I read in many places, I should use the following command:
Quote:
But, since this command flooded the screen with the following error message,
Quote:
I tried the following (in an Ubuntu-Hardy desktop):
Code:
Which seemes to have written nothing to the cd. So:
1) where was all that written?
2) how to use the command line to write CDs?

I've been running Lenny for quite a while and have always been plagued by strange CD writing/erasing errors in K3B. I also tried erasing my CDRWs using wodim from the command prompt but had erratic results there also. I was researching these problems on Google recently and finally found a solution as well as an explanation of the cause of all the difficulties. Go here [URL], do some reading and then download/install cdrtools-3.00 from the link on the main page. The package did all the work for me including updating the default programs in K3B - now everything works as it should. I sincerely hope Debian will reconsider the trouble-prone fork of the original cdrecord (wodim) and make Jorg Schilling's excellent cdrecord the package of choice for future releases of Debian.

kernel 2.6.21.5, Slackware 12.0 cdrecord 2.01
Code:
This is the command line I used to run cdrecord. Afterwards, I ran 'cdrecord -media-info' on the same disc and, as a result, I got the messages contained in the file I am adjoining. There, two consecutive warnings can be seen, which I quote:
Quote:
The disk, after recording, however, is both readable by GNU/linux and another O.S. What is the meaning of those warnings and what are its possible implications? I would like to know.

I was trying to burn an .iso with K3b a little while ago, and had some problems. First of all, even though I chose 8x to burn my (16x) DVD, it switched to 11x or 12x around halfway through the burning process. There were also some ticking noises that I'm pretty sure were coming from the DVD writer, not terribly loud, but noticeable. This had never happened before. Finally, it got stuck at about 98% (but not frozen, as the time elapsed kept going), and did not finish burning--got an error message (and a bad disc): "cdrecord has no permission to open the device"
I inspected the disc and there was one dark spot (on the dye) about halfway through the disc, very thin and couple of millimeters long. (This was present only after burning). I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, K3b version 1.91.0, Lite-On DVDRW SHW-160P6S

I realize the information found here is potentially biased, but it made me curious where Fedora stands. Now that even Debian has agreed to distribute the original fork of Cdrtools, is Fedora considering that option? Several other distros are distributing the original fork now, and it's where active development is ongoing.

Still getting the "cdrecord has no permission to open the device" error when trying to burn an iso image to a DVD-RW.
I did yet another clean install of openSUSE 11.2 64 on my desktop computer, did updates, added Nvidia and Packman repos (it's not a repo problem as I tried it several times on a totally clean install), added codecs and stuff as advised by caf.
I updated the DVD drive firmware earlier today.
My user is a member of ALL groups.
Drive is an LG GH22NSS50 (sata)
It all works (with the same DVD-RW) under winxp on the same machine.
Is it HAL or something else that blocks permission to devices?
I'm really getting sick to death of this problem, and would be happy just to get rid of anything blocking permissions to the DVD drive.

I tried to burn with k3b but after a while the fateful message "cdrecord has no permission to write to the device. " Then I launched k3bsetup and I selected the burning group. Did not exist. I created it and now i'm included in it. Then I checked all the boxes for the write permissions of the programs used by k3b and the writer. Now it works. But after reboot, the box of the burner device is not checked. So I have to select it each time. Boring. DO you know how to save the setting permanently

I have been able to set up all of the usual wireless network services with the gnome desktop but I have had no success with the KDE desktop. I have tried to reconfigure the network settings but to no avail. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. Any thoughts?

I found myself in troubles. I was trying to get dts passthrough works in many many ways with no success. Finally I (desperately) decided to try OSS rather than ALSA following this guide: [URL].. And there the things went wrong. I ended up with no sound at all so I tried to reinstall alsa again but with no luck.
basicaly what I did after following the guide was: sudo apt-get install alsa-base alsa-utils. sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-sound-base //and choose alsa
but still, for example:
$ alsamixer
puts:
alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory
$ /etc/init.d/alsa-utils start
* Setting up ALSA... [ OK ]
but no alsa process at all. $ aplay -l aplay: device_list:223: no soundcards found. It seems to me like sound card drivers are gone..

I tried to install perl-tk today, and tried tcl and tk in the process. "apt-get install" is reporting success, but I can't find the commands. I expect them to be in /usr/bin, but they're not there. I've tried "clean" and "update" as well, and even rebooted, to no avail. Synaptic package manager gives the same results. This is happening on two different systems, one running koala and the other intrepid. Here's a snippet of what I've tried:
%heron 35: sudo apt-get purge tk tcl perl-tk
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package tk is not installed, so not removed

I've been trying to get a working server installation with little success. Wailing and gnashing of teeth has occurred. Auto-cranialdepilation (pulling my hair out) is in full swing and the intravenous caffeine is running out. My target is a running Ubuntu server with an e-mail server, Samba and the ability to host a few domains for friends and a couple of volunteer organisiations. All non-profit stuff. For the hosting I need something like cpanel but not actual cpanel; you seen the price of it!
I've installed postfix from the tutorial at [URL]... I think I've got ssh working, in as much as I can putty into the server. BTW, the server is physically next to my desk. Can I get email or webmin working? Can I hell! is there any kind soul out there who knows what they're doing who would be prepared to spend a bit of time puttyed in to the server helping me set the freaking thing up? I'm a sort of noob old hand. I still have a copy of the first edition of K&R and I had the pleasure of owning a Sun 3/260 for some years; wonderful machine! So I can
Code:
rm -rf /* quite happily and know that xnix doesn't know how to make love. Trouble is... SunOS 4.1.1 and Solaris 1 are more my era.

I'm trying to synce several windows mobile devices without much success. All the instructions I've read say that synce-dccm should be installed. I can't find it (or synce-odccm) either via synaptic or using apt-get install. Has this package been re-named or incorporated into something else or just redundant? I have the repository "launchpad.net/synce/ppa/ubuntu lucid" added to my sources.

would have marked the last thread as solved, but couldn't find where to do it Got it up and running, dual-boot, and no problems after scandisk, and fujitsu helped out. Now I have XP and Debian lenny. Here's where the hard part comes in, for me anyways. Had to do install without NIC, install didn't find it. I have the driver disk for it, with a linux driver on it, but I can't find anything about how to use it.
The driver file has 5 files inside it. 1) Makefile 2) sr9600.c 3) sr9600.h, 2 readme's and a file containing some .png files. I can't find a substitute driver for the card, SUPERAL semiconductor sr9600, that may be already on the stuff I can get using aptitude, so what do I do with this driver...how do I get the system to use it? I NEED networking, a tutorial or some good advice,.. I've googled everything I can think of.

On Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4, I enter the command:net time set -I 192.59.196.66Where 192.59.196.66 is the IP address of a Windows Server 2008 time serverThe response is:/bin/date 071218072010.20 failed. Error was (Success)The actual clock time does not get updated. However, evidently it did really communicate with the time server on 192.59.196.66, because the value in the response 071218072010.20 does correspond to the time on the time server, albeit in the somewhat bizarre format MMDDHHMMYYYY.SS.

I've just upgraded to 10.04 and even if I am able to use my two displays with my Nvidia GPU, it bugs me that I can't use basic transparency controls on my desktop (compositing in Xfce). I've searched all over google and most links say it's impossible to mix Xinerama with Compositing, while others suggest using the old Xgl implementation will do the trick. I've also read things about Xrandr and that it might be a substitute for Xinerama, but it seems Nvidia drivers doesn't support it.
So, basically, I am at the end of my wits and I wanted to ask (shout?) if anyone managed to: 1. use two displays as part of the same desktop AND use compositing (window transparency) 2. or hack the compositing feature to work with some sort of software acceleration instead of hardware acceleration
Google lists all sorts of solutions, but none conclusive. So, is there a way out of this problem, maybe by using nouveau, or Xrandr, or something else entirely?

I am trying to reset the root password of Squeeze so that I may be able to update. I forgot it. I have followed the howto Reset Root Password without success. I am getting a root prompt but for some weird reason the root commands are not found. When I type passwd, I get, "command not found". Moreover, If I try reboot and shutdown -h now, both fail.

I'm testing some (selfwritten) installer scripts and I'd like to test it on several linux systems. From my script, I create a database and a user, which should have no rights but to the objects created on that database. I create that user with "grant usage on <dbname>.* to 'user'@'%' identified by After that, the user exists, but is not allowed to login with mysql client (same procedure works fine on debian systems). At first thought, I supposed, that I did a mistake on database setup, but then I realized, that I could connect from a different workstation using that user.
To me it looks very strange, that that user sees information_schema and test, but not the database, I used at user creation. From my script I check success of db and user creation by using the created user for connection and exec a 'show databases', which should show the new created db. What am I missing with mysql on Suse systems? Is my expectation wrong, did I make a mistake on database setup or what do I have to change to validate success of my script?
