I had posted this as a reply to another thread, but it seemed to be slipping under the radar, so I created a new thread.
I am another ImgBurn user on Linux. All was fine until I replaced some hardware and reinstalled everything from scratch. Now I can't get ImgBurn to detect my dvd burner. My device is /dev/sr0, like it was before, and I got no fixed mount point for it (again, like before, and HAL + KDE handle automounting). While I am sure it all worked before, I wonder how Wine (and ImgBurn) could deal with a dynamic mount point and drive letter assigning, and I tried doing it the static way. Obviously I tried disabling the CD-Rom class option and all the other tips I found around the Web. Unfortunately I cannot use my old Wine configuration since I deleted the .wine directory in a fit of rage about the application crashing my whole computer every time it was used (it was about OpenGL, by the way).
Anyway, back to ImgBurn. As of now I do not understand how to configure winecfg: let's forget automount and dynamic mount points for a moment. If I assign a drive letter to the physical device (/dev/sr0), it doesn't work at all. If I assign it to a static mount point, manually mount a DVD there, and launch ImgBurn device detection, it gets detected, but as soon as I umount it and restart ImgBrun, detection fails. Certainly it can't work this way, since to burn a disc you do not need to mount it (better, you must not mount it). On the other hand, it makes little sense to associate a drive letter to a mount point, since such mount point is irrelevant when the disc is not mounted. I must be missing something, since it works for everyone else, but I can't figure it out. Help and suggestions very welcome. smile.gif Thanks.
