Hi,
do it manually.
$ man wodim
...
blank=type
...
Not all drives support all blanking types. It may be necessary to use
blank=all if a drive reports a specified command as being invalid. If
used together with the -force flag, this option may be used to blank
CD-RW disks that otherwise cannot be blanked. Note that you may need to
specify blank=all because some drives will not continue with certain
types of bad CD-RW disks. Note also that wodim does its best if the
-force flag is used but it finally depends on the drive’s firmware
whether the blanking operation will succeed or not.
...
Insert CD-RW.
Cancel any popup window.
$ su
Display mount points:
# mount
Unmount CD-RW, for example :
# umount /dev/sr0
Try first -blank=fast option
# wodim -v -blank=fast dev=/dev/sr0
If not good, see help above (man wodim).
