It was recently revealed, at least to me, that the reason : man cdrecord does no work is that cdrecord is a softlink to wodim. Now my local ubantu person point out in ubantu running man cdrecord returns the man page of modim. This he attributes to ubantu being more carefull about details, First is this true about ubantu and is it worthwhile to file a bugzilla RFE on man to get fedora to mirror this functionality. It seems on the surface a simple extension to implement so I wonder why it was not done in Fedora. -- ======================================================================= Life is a POPULARITY CONTEST!
