    devices are connected to the secondary IDE. There are no devices connected to
    the primary IDE.

Comment 1 Tony Lyon 2006-04-04 04:14:26 UTC
Problem has been solved at my end.  I just noticed that there was a new
version of k3b mad available this evening (i.e. k3b-0.12.14-0.FC5.2) and now
my DVD-WR is working like a champ! THANKS for the update!
