The original poster stated that he had a Sony 926S, an cdwrite *DOES* support that model -- or at least, it works with the 926S via an earlier Sony model's support (I don't recall which). I've used cdwrite with my own Sony 926S. > Cdrecord supports all CD-Recorders from all companies that want to have support > on UNIX. I do agree that cdrecord is the better choice, overall, since it's being actively maintained and improved. As to the original poster's plight, I'd suggest that you post more details. Saying "it doesn't work," without elaboration, isn't very helpful from a debugging point of view. So: Try cdrecord rather than cdwrite, and if that doesn't work, give details of what failed, including any error messages you get. -- Rod Smith Author of: rodsmith@fast9.uceprotect.net "Should I Buy OS/2" FAQ http://www.users.fast.net/~rodsmith "OS/2 Soundcard Summary" NOTE: Remove the digit and following word from my address to mail me
