Lord Deathscythe Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 Are there any good DVD burners for Linux software wise? I have a HP DVD burner dvd200i. Help would be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonMage Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 I think dvd burner is the matter of software installed. Since I don't have any blank dvd handy, I cannot test how linux handle dvd burning in the toshiba laptop I have (it has a built in dvd-rw). K3b supposedly supports dvd burning if you install dvd+rw-tools rpm. Of course, I cannot check whether it works, but try it, you never know :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidzoo Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 I have heard of success stories with the newer versions of k3b. They say that it works right on their website. I do not have a dvd writer, so I cannot verify this personally. Check their website, though: http://www.k3b.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 The k3b rpms from their website works for me the mandrake rpms that ship with mdk9.2 dont, Thats for dvd+rw btw Ric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonMage Posted December 17, 2003 Report Share Posted December 17, 2003 Well.. that's the frustrating thing about open source, development goes really fast. I mean, Mandrake 9.2 has been out for what.. a month and a half.. and there are already many updates to the packages that enables some needed features. Gaim and k3b are some of them. Anyway, congratulations to making it work :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
