Q: What does "wodim" stand for?
|
| 5 |
A: It is not a forest troll and not a winner of the inpronounceability
|
| 6 |
contest. It was simply the next alternative to wom (Writes Optical Media)
|
| 7 |
which was unfortunately already used by other software products.

Q: Are there additional depedencies, compared to cdrtools?
|
| 22 |
A: Yes. Libcap is required on Linux plattform. Libmagic is needed to support
|
| 23 |
content-based creator/type tables with HFS (optional). Libiconv is needed to
|
| 24 |
support iconv-based filename converstion, eg. from UTF-8 ins Joliet's UCS-2
|
| 25 |
unicode (optional, on plattform where iconv is not already included in the libc
|
| 26 |
system library).

Q: Burning dies with (logical unit communication crc error (ultra-dma/32)).
|

Reason? Solutions?
|
| 30 |
A: Try enabling DMA for your device. Some CDROM readers/writters seem to send
|
| 31 |
non-critical UDMA control/error codes without beeing in DMA mode and so
|
| 32 |
those messages are not interpreted by the kernel but delivered to the
|
| 33 |
applications instead.
