I haven't even stated which distribution I'm running. How can you possibly know what it puts into /etc/cdrecord.conf when it detects my CD-R?

But I think that in the last few days you've managed to lose even the shred of credibility you once had. I shall now take anything you say with an _extremely_ large pinch of salt. > Jrg -- dwmw2
