cdrecord (schilling's) and wodim : Warning: Cannot read drive buffer.

[JD]

How do I fix this?
The drive is:
$ dmesg | egrep -i 'cdrom|dvd|optical|optiarc'
[    1.614989] ata2.00: ATAPI: Optiarc DVD+/-RW AD-7930H, 100A, max UDMA/100
[    1.637908] scsi 1:0:0:0: CD-ROM            Optiarc  DVD+-RW AD-7930H 
100A PQ: 0 ANSI: 5
[    1.669987] sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] scsi3-mmc drive: 62x/62x writer dvd-ram 
cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray
[    1.670229] cdrom: Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20

Thanx!

I not know about wodim (as I'm /due to problem with it/ for years
using Jörg Schilling's cdrtools package) - but I've never seen such
a report (but use another CD/DVD drives).
Only tip: you have set cdrecord binary as SUID root? For certain
operations it is required.
You can also ask for help on the cdrtools-support mailing lists.
