k3b/xcdroast write speed problem

**distortioned** · 04-30-2005

With both burn software I've got the same problem. I can't pass 1x/2x write speed. However both burners detects my dvd-rw write speed correctly.
Could anyone give me a hand

Thanx.

try enabling dma

Code:

hdparm -d1 /dev/hdx

x = your partion letter of cdburner

I did what you told me and...

/dev/hda:
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
using_dma = 1 (on)

but didn't work

It's working

All I had to do was, add this line to lilo.conf and run lilo:

Code:

append="hda=ide-scsi"

It seems that my dvdrw needs scsi emulation.

Thanks anyway.

they always need this, it's an important thing to remember, it's the same for cd-rw's
