I lock HAL. Still, it seems I am missing something or there is a problem with my hardware. The command: hal-lock --interface org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Storage --udi /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_model_DVDRAM_GH22NS40 --run 'growisofs -dvd-compat -speed=4 -Z /dev/cd0=imagefile.iso' Executing 'builtin_dd if=imagefile.iso of=/dev/pass0 obs=32k seek=0' The output: Executing 'builtin_dd if=imagefile.iso of=/dev/pass0 obs=32k seek=0' /dev/pass0: "Current Write Speed" is 4.1x1352KBps. 0/1604739072 ( 0.0%) @0x, remaining ??:??

It even claimed once to have the DVD finished. But the DVD is not mountable. As it was never used to burn, it also could be a hardware problem. Reading was not a problem on 8.0. Does anybody have any idea what I am missing? Erich PS: What I did: I added from the handbook atapicam according to the handbook: '18.6.9 Using the ATAPI/CAM Driver" I followed this advice: http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/halfaq.html#q6
