Thanks. The email from Kay arrived just after I'd sent off my previous response, and then I understood what you and he were driving at. Thanks for your patience! By the way, Looking through the ENV as reported, I don't see any variable such as ID_CDROM_DVD_RW, which would allow me to distinguish between a DVD-R and a DVD-RW. Am I correct that no variable exists? -- Moshe Yudkowsky work: http://www.Disaggregate.com book: http://www.PebbleAndAvalanche.com ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
