Great info, thanks. I wondered what exactly was going on under the covers.
I'll try this out this evening after work.

I'm using Fedora 9 on a "AMD Athlon(tm) X2 Dual Core Processor

read/write drive (Optiarc Model: DVD RW AD-7200A Rev: 1.W1). When
I load a blank DVD-R in the drive, an icon appears that tells me I've
got a blank DVD in the drive. I double-click the icon, and CD/DVD
Creator pops up. I drag/drop files into the window and then tell it
to "Write to Disc". It thinks for a while, then pops up a little
window with the very clear and informative message, "Error!" I can
find no information on what the error is or what I can do about it.
You are going through multiple layers of voodoo here to put a GUI
interface on burning, which also seems to hide what's really going on.
If you want to actually run the commands and see what error messages
they produce, you will probably see the problem.
To create an ISO image suitable for burning:
mkisofs -o /tmp/test.iso -RU some_one_GB_directory
growisofs -Z /dev/dvd=/tmp/test.iso
The first command should create an image ready to burn, and the second
should do the burn.
Report back.
