Looking at the sources above it is clear there is no range limit but if the driver didn't like the speed a different error would come up when the speed was set. Interesting as this is on a CDROM, not CD-R[W]. Error below is correct. But apparently the speed was successfully set. burncd -f /dev/acd0c -s 12 msinfo burncd: ioctl(CDRIOCNEXTWRITEABLEADDR): Input/output error Had a Philips 804 8/4/32 CD-RW for two awful weeks (in short it wrote OK but had problems reading what it wrote while other drives did not have any problems reading the same). Would not burn in 1x mode, the slowest it could do was 2x as measured with wall clock and observing the device thruput with "systat -v". When told to do 1x, it did 2x. So possibly if one were to attempt a burn at 24x with a 12x drive it would silently do whatever it has to? Don't have one under my fingertips to try at them moment. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
