I've been reading that hdx=ide-scsi is not advisable on 2.6.x kernels. So, I thought there should be some other way. > Does cdrdao or cdda-wav work manually? Yes -- well, at least, sort of: ========== cdrdao disk-info --driver generic-mmc-raw --device ATA:1,0,0 Cdrdao version 1.1.8 - (C) Andreas Mueller <andreas@xxxxxxxx> SCSI interface library - (C) Joerg Schilling Paranoia DAE library - (C) Monty Check http://cdrdao.sourceforge.net/drives.html#dt for current driver tables.

It can't seem to correctly identify this unit's specs, though (like max recording speed etc.). xcdroast does it just fine. > Does k3b give you any messages at all on startup? Yes, it always complains it could not determine max recording speed and asks me to define it manually. Best, Andre -- Andre Oliveira da Costa
