i can't erase, write... i can't use my dvd-rw.... works in Windows or Ubuntu
seems like something is using your cdrom... is it mounted, e.g. by nautilus?
I have the same problem and also with k3b. I started in runlevel 3 and tried again and there it works. I think this has something to do with hal,udev and gnome-mount, because a cd gets automounted when inserted.
I have the same problem when using kaudiocreator. When a audio cd is entered in the dvd-drive, kde start kio_audio process (2x). kaudiocreator then tries to use cd<???-tool> to access the device exclusively, but it fails. This is the error from kaudiocreator: ------------------ Unknown error. If you have a cd in the drive try running cdparanoia -vsQ as yourself (not root). Do you see a track list? If not, make sure you have permission to access the CD device. If you are using SCSI emulation (possible if you have an IDE CD writer) then make sure you check that you have read and write permissions on the generic SCSI device, which is probably /dev/sg0, /dev/sg1, etc.. If it still does not work, try typing audiocd:/?device=/dev/sg0 (or similar) to tell kio_audiocd which device your CD-ROM is. ------------------ running cdparanoia -vsQ gives: $ cdparanoia -vsQ cdparanoia III release 9.8 (March 23, 2001) (C) 2001 Monty <monty> and Xiphophorus Report bugs to paranoia http://www.xiph.org/paranoia/ Checking /dev/cdrom for cdrom... Testing /dev/cdrom for SCSI interface Error trying to open /dev/scd0 exclusively (Device or resource busy). retrying in 1 second. So, it seems to get the device exclusively, but it can't (and it needn't), because kio_audiocd is already using the device: $ fuser -v /dev/scd0 USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/scd0: knol 8243 f.... kio_audiocd knol 8245 f.... kio_audiocd knol 8253 f.... kaudiocreator after running $ killall -6 kio_audiocd kaudiocreator works again.
sorry my version of fedora is 7, not 5.
(In reply to comment #6) > sorry my version of fedora is 7, not 5. > > knolderpoor, your bug seems to be related (the same as?) this one: Bug 283321
close enough, esp since fc5 is EOL'd. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 283321 ***
