[Bug 451350] Re: karmic: brasero error on burning iso images

[Greg Whiteley]

I get the same symptom and fiddling around with cdrecord I find that the
options used for the burn are not compatible with the supported modes of
the drive.  The same error is reported in his attached brasero-
session.log

> Excerpt from mine:
 Supported modes: TAO PACKET SAO SAO/R96P SAO/R96R
> Excerpt from attached brasero-session.log
 Supported modes: TAO PACKET SAO

Taking the command reported in the attached brasero-session.log
$ wodim -v dev=/dev/sr0 speed=24 driveropts=burnfree -raw96r fs=16m -clone /home/user/brasero
...
 Supported modes: TAO PACKET SAO SAO/R96P SAO/R96R
...
 wodim: Drive does not support RAW recording.
 wodim: Illegal write mode for this drive.

Removing -clone and -raw96r successfully writes _something_ to the disk,
but its not a valid disk once its done.  The -clone mode used on read
requires -raw96r on write and its unsupported by these drives.

Adding in -sao (as suggested by my drives capabilities:  SAO/R96R) returns:
 wodim: SAO RAW writing not yet implemented.

So possibilities occur (to unknowledgeable me):
1. wodim doesn't recognise that the drives support RAW any more (and did in Jaunty)
2. brasero has changed the way it reads and writes whole disks and this mode (-clone) isn't compatible with drives that don't support RAW (and the old way was)

I'll try to boot up in jaunty and see if wodim reports the same sets of
supported modes
