I'm using linux 2.6.16. The CD Writer is detected correctly as I can emtpy ReWritable CDs. When burning starts, I get (the message is in french so I'm translating but it might no be the exact wording in the english version) : "Input/output error (not important error)" displayed twice. Then burning fails.

Robert forgot to mention that he successfully burned a CD using cdrecord (the same version) directly. See the Debian bug report: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=365056
is dma activated on the drive? if so, please try dao writing mode or disable multisession mode.
I hope I'm not making mistakes, but the CD-R/DVD-R drive in my Thinkpad R52 is a PATA device connected to a SATA2 bus. So I don't enable DMA mode with hdparm, the DVD-R device is configured as a SCSI device, and that's how I get CD burning capatibilities.
Can you please try with 0.12.17 or 1.0pre2.
I've just tried k3b 0.12.17. The problem is stil there. Note that I'm running the latest Debian Sid, and recently cdrecord has been forked to wodim.
please post the command you used for the successful command line burn and its output.
Hello, The command I use is "wodim k3b_image.iso". Here's the output of the program. robert@thinkpad:~/buffer$ wodim k3b_image.iso This is wodim, not cdrecord. Don't expect it to behave like cdrecord in any way, don't refer to it as "cdrecord".

Are you sure you disabled burnfree because it still is used in the second try. But anyway, K3b should be able to detect if the writer supports burnfree.
please try writing an iso image with k3b via the tools->burn cd image menu entry.
Wait, let's look on your wodim configuration. Please do "wodim -vv image" and show the log. And show where your /dev/cdrw link points to (assuming that you use the default config, otherwise the device link used in your config).
you may also try disabling multisession. Maybe the writer does not like that.
There has been no information in a long time. I cannot reproduce the bug so I will close it.
Just for the record, the original reporter doesn't have these problems anymore. See the last message on the Debian tracker: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=365056
Hello, I am the original reporter Robert Derochette. I can confirm k3b works perfectly for me since version 1.0. Sorry for not telling that earlier, and thanks for this wonderful program which is k3b :-)
