When burning CD's using nautilus/cdrecord only the first CD is usable. All other CD's burned are unreadable - or to be more precise nautilius sees them as empty but cdrecord is incapable of writing them. When I try to burn a CD directly from cdrecord it hangs in state DL+ (uninterruptible sleep). This is apparently the same problem as discussed on http://www.livejournal.com/community/debian/186598.html , and it might be related to bug 137049 and bug 141082. Default FC3 install with all current updates - kernel-2.6.1-1.681, cdrecord-2.01.1-5 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot the PC. 2. Burn a CD from an image. 3a. Burn another CD. The result is a coaster. 3b. Burn a CD using cdrecord. It hangs in state DL+ .
