Setting an actual speed worked fine, except for a further odd problem on the DVD+RW laptop drive. burncd data image.iso works fine, but burncd data image.iso fixate causes an I/O error at the fixate stage - exactly as though the drive (or utiliy, or OS) has memorised the fact that the drive contains a blank CD and continues to treat it as empty media even after writing to it.
