I don't know how old your CDR is but some older drives have problems with the newer media. A firmware upgrade normaly fixes this.

Hi All,
I am having trouble with a CD writer, a Yamaha CRW2100S SCSI.
Hi Steve,
I have an identical Yamaha CRW2100S writer connected to a Tekram DC390U SCSI card which works perfectly.
So, the first thing I'd like to know is if people think this is hardware problem, or a compatibility problem between the drivers and the CDR unit?
And dmesg reports:
sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 40x/40x writer cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray VFS: Disk change detected on device sr(11,0) ncr53c810-0:0: ERROR (20:0) (8-28-0) (7/13) @ (script e7c:180008a0). ncr53c810-0: script cmd = 88080000 ncr53c810-0: regdump: da 10 80 13 47 07 00 1f 80 08 80 28 00 00 00 00. ncr53c810-0: have to clear fifos. ncr53c810-0-<0,*>: FAST-10 SCSI 10.0 MB/s (100 ns, offset 7)
For cdrecord, cdrecord seems to pick the mmc driver. The error message I get know from it is:

Have you tryed using the sym53c8xx kernel module instead of the ncr53c8xx. This is an updated driver, your old one may be having problems controling your new writer.
Here is my DMESG output

As you can see, my SCSI card reports the writer as a FAST-20 SCSI 20.0MB/s device, whereas you'rs is reporting it as a 10Mb device.
Cdrecord uses the MMC driver with no problems.
Hope that helps
