ubuntu cd burner problems

Hey Betty. Just to be clear you are saying that you can't burn cds and
not that your drive is not recognizing any media placed in it? I have
never heard of serpentine before as I have always used Gnomebaker or
K3B. If complete dvds need to be copied from dvd/dvd I would recommend
K9Copy instead.

Are you using CDR's or CDRW's. My experience with CDRW's has been
abysmal at best. When burning make sure you burn at slow speeds, 2-4X
is good or the lowest setting your burner will run.

hmmm, well after i was sooo bragging that everything was working fine in
feisty fawn, i tried to burn a cd. actually tried any number of cd's.
everytime it (serpentine) asks to have a blank cd put into the burner,
and i do that, it keeps asking, like it doesn't recognize that one is in
there.

i tried using different cds. and i tried using the second build of
feisty that i have on my office computer (in case it was the burner
(hardware) ) itself. same message. i looked on message boards but didn't
find this problem.

any ideas?
this could be a drag.
thx
