Flaky recognition of external CD burnerForum: Other Help Topics Topic: Flaky recognition of external CD burner started by: jhsu Posted by jhsu on Feb. 11 2008,00:32
Thanks everyone for your help with CDW. I have been able to get it to work at least sometimes.However, I'm finding that my computer's recognition of the external CD burner (connected to a USB port through a USB hub) is flaky. Sometimes, (as shown by "cdrecord -scanbus"), it's on scsibus 2,0,0; sometimes 1,0,0; sometimes 0,0,0; and sometimes not recognized AT ALL. When my computer stops recognizing my external CD burner, I'm able to remedy things by rebooting, but burning CDs is STILL hit-or-miss. Why exactly does this keep changing? How can I get the external CD burner to stay on the same scsibus? And what causes the CD burner to drop out of the scsibus altogether sometimes? |
