cd burning

[randy turner]

hi Igor and all
i saw on the web where a few people had it working,
i might need to look for a later uhci or usb-uhci driver
i will look at that site that you gave me.
i updated cdrecord to the latest version,
i am running kernel 2.4.18,
the cd burner is the iomega 4x4x6
i am also using the generic scsi driver
i have tried speeds 2 4 and 0 all time out,
i have tried setting a higher value in timeout=
still timeout happens
i assume i have an intel,
the drivers load ok and with the other driver it won't load
so i assume i have the correct driver.
anyway i will look around somemore


 thanks in advance
randy

> Hi Randy. What type of motherboard do you have? Intel motherboards generally use the uhci driver, so I would suggest using it. I am not sure as to what controller (s) usb-uhci uses or is compatible with. As for everything timing out in the second track, it might have to do with slow transfer rates. How recent is the document that you read?

Sorry I can't say whether its normal or not. Because if you are burning 650 mb at 1x, then I would say it could take something close to the time you specify.
