Apologies, I seem to have posted this in the wrong section.
I'm experiencing problems writing CDROMs. When attempting to burn the ISO of Mint Dayna (to spread the good word) the system returns a failure message when using any of Brasero, CD/DVD Creator, or Gnome Baker.
Cdrecord -scanbus says this about the device:
scsibus1:
1,0,0 100) 'QSI ' 'DVD+-RW SDW-082 ' 'LX34' Removable CD-ROM
which doesn't permit me to identify anything about the device itself. The device functions because I can burn successfully in WinXP.
Can anyone point me at the error log and or the modules of interest.

Not only in a slightly wrong section but also crossposted to a non support section. That post has been deleted.
It seems that this DVD+-RW SDW-082 is not a very good one - google for SDW-082 and you'll see
It also seems it's very picky about the media used, so possibly changing the disks you use can help you
There seems to be a firmware update, but as always when it's about firmware you have to be very careful!

Re: Debugging CD/DVD writing
Husse, Thanks for sorting that out, I followed your suggestion and finally took the plunge and updated the firmward from the following site
http://www.optima.com.au/kb/000048.asp
I have now upgraded the firmware from LX34 to LX48 and all seems OK, I can now burn CD's.
