"Reproducible: Didn't try"

sorry, I actually tried several times - even UN-installed K3B, reinstalled K3b and tried again. Same deal every single time. The previous version of K3B worked just fine with my multisession disk burning.

I need this to work

Received this error repeatedly while trying to blank a CD-RW.  The 'Quick' format option generated the same error.  In the past, I've always been able to reboot into Windows and blank the rejected disc using Nero, so I expect the same will be true with this time.  I received the same error in Ubuntu 10.04, so I was hoping to see this work in a clean install of Ubuntu 11.04, but no joy.  This error was received after using K3bsetup to change the system permissions to K3b's recommended values.

I haven't tried using the LITE-ON DVDRW for this operation.  I've had past problems with DVD burners munging these old 4x CD-RW discs, so I always use my HP CD-Writer+ 9100 to write to them.


Here is the debug log:

Comment 3 publicpanther 2011-06-18 00:02:02 UTC
Wanted to follow-up that in this instance the HP CD-Writer+ 9100 using Nero in Windows also returned an "unknown error".  Having nothing to lose, I attempted blanking it using K3b, Ubuntu AMD64 11.04, and my LITE-ON DVDRW and was successful.  Maybe my venerable HP CD-Writer+ 9100 is starting to die, but it was the drive that burned the image to the disc in question just a few days before and had not been used for anything else in the interim.

Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

Dear Bug Submitter,

This is a reminder that this bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? This bug will be moved back to REPORTED Status for manual review later, which may take a while. If you are able to, please lend us a hand.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

It is still a problem. Retested using current Ubuntu 18.04 kernel. Brasero had no problem blanking and burning the ISO using the same drive.
