    Hi,

    I've just purchased a Backpack CDRewriter, but I can't get it to write
    to a CD-RW (haven't tried CD-ROM yet).

    I have:

      Redhat 7.3
      Linux kernel 2.4.18
      cdrecord 1.11 (also tried 1.10)
      Backpack model 195200

    Here's the syslog output from modprobe's of paride, bpck6 and pg:

    May 18 00:11:55 gar kernel: paride: version 1.06 installed (parport)

    Here's the output from "cdrecord -scanbus":

    And here's the output from cdrecord when I try to "quick erase" a CD-RW:

    Device seems to be: Philips CDD-522.

    Starting to write CD/DVD at speed 4 in write mode for single session.
    Last chance to quit, starting real write in 0 seconds. Operation starts.
    cdrecord: Input/output error. blank unit: scsi sendcmd: no error

    Sense Code: 0x30 Qual 0x05 (cannot write medium - incompatible format)
    Fru 0x0
    Sense flags: Blk 0 (not valid)
    cmd finished after 0.003s timeout 9600s
    cdrecord: Cannot blank disk, aborting.

    I tried changing the delay to 1, but the problem remained.

    I'm guessing that this drive is not compatible :(

    Any ideas?

    Thanks, Greg.
