Well works for me here. What's the output of cdrdao --device /dev/cdrom disk-info (with a CD preferably, assuming /dev/cdrom is your device here) Can you try with brasero 0.7.0 ? (rpm here: http://www.poolshark.org/src/brasero-0.7.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm)

I haven't tried brasero 7.0, I will give it a try. also, K3b burns everything without any problems.
You forgot --device: cdrdao disk-info --device /dev/cdrom
brasero 0.7 needed a libburn package, I have installed it, but it still won't install because of: Missing Dependency: libburn.so.0 is needed by package brasero I've checked, in my /usr/lib I've got only libburn.so and libburn.so.4, I've created symlink called libburn.so.0 but it didn't solve a problem.

!@#$ ok sorry. Just recompiled it without libburn support. Can you download brasero 0.7.0 again and reinstall it (with --force) : http://www.poolshark.org/src/brasero-0.7.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm
are you sure? :) I still get: [root@Mareg ~]# rpm -Uvh brasero-0.7.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libburn.so.0 is needed by brasero-0.7.0-1.fc8.i386 libisofs.so.5 is needed by brasero-0.7.0-1.fc8.i386 [root@Mareg ~]# brasero was downloaded using wget
Ok, used --nodeps to install brasero and... looks like it works :) I like the new look! Thanks!
Fantastic. I'll push 0.7.0 to F-8.
brasero-0.7.0-1.fc8 has been pushed to the Fedora 8 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update brasero'
brasero from updates-testing repo works fine for me :) Thanks!
