1 Frequently Asked Questions about cdrkit
2 =======================================
3
4 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.
8
9 Q: What this name of ... mean?
10 A: Terminology: some names are based on pure imagination, some on
11 abbreviations, some on permutations of chars in descriptions.
12
13 genisoimage: Generate ISO IMAGEs
14 icedax: InCrEdible Audio eXtractor
15 librols: LIB Remains Of LibSchily
16 libusal: LIB Unified/Universal Scsi Access Layer
17 netscsid: NET SCSI Daemon
18 readom: READ Optical Media (see also wodim)
19 wodim: see above
20
21 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).
27
28 Q: Burning dies with (logical unit communication crc error (ultra-dma/32)).
29 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.
