I've just replaced a broken LG dvd burner on my parents pc with an ASUS drw-22b2s (IDE interface) and it works fine except it cannot read audio cds. This didn't happen with the old one. Anyway serpentine or cdcd or else fail or return errors on lenny. I checked on win2k (it's a dual boot pc) and programs that use analog audio for cds fail while other that use digital audio work. I also tried installing the burner on another pc (mythtv box with etch) and had the same problems. Can't test it on my desktop 'cause it has SATA interface only. I went to the shop and asked for another unit (same model because it's the only one they sell with IDE interface) and had the same problems. So I imagine there must be some issue with this particular model or maybe some lethal mixture of motherboard, chipset and burner. Anybody had similar experiences? Do you have some hints? Actually there's a SATA connector on the gigabyte 7vt600 motherboard on the pc but I never used it and it was quite experimental at the time it was bought (maybe 6 years ago). Should I try with a SATA burner? Thanks -- Leonardo Canducci -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
