K3B suddenly can't burn DVD anymore
by Reuben D. Budiardja
Hello,
My K3B suddenly can't burn DVD anymore. Whenever I tried to burn DVD, it
complained that it couldn't find media in /dev/hdc (although the DVD+R is
there) and asked me to insert an "empty of appendable Double layer DVD+-R".
Why does it do that ? and why it asked me for a double layer media ? my data
is < 4GB. When this happens, I suddenly get this in my /var/log/message:
Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: hdc: packet command error: status=0x51
{ DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: hdc: packet command error: error=0x40
{ LastFailedSense=0x04 }
Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown
Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: ATAPI device hdc:
Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: Error: Hardware error -- (Sense key=0x04)
Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: Tracking servo failure -- (asc=0x09,
ascq=0x01)
Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: The failed "Read Cd/Dvd Capacity" packet
command was:
Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: "25 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00 00 "
I am not so sure if this is a device failure. Two days ago I could burn DVD
just fine. Just now, I tried to burn CD with the same device and it worked
fine.
Any help ?
Thank you in advance.

Yum doesn't appear to update packages anymore
by Jacques B.
Over the past several days it seems like yum is not doing any updates.
I see postings on the list of updates, and my PC at the office seems
to be grabbing the later versions, but not at home. For example
mlocate-0.14-0.fc5.1 is out. My installed version is
mlocate-0.12-1.2. But when I do a yum update, it says no updates
(same applies to the recent kernel release, it's not picking that up).
I even went so far as to do a yum remove of mlocate and then a yum
install of it and sure enough it still grabbed the -0.12-1.2 version
rather than the latest one. I have not been messing with the .repos
so I can't understand why it has stopped updating. Any suggestions?

by Colin Paul Adams
Could someone list the procedure to do this (I have the iso images on
disc)? It's not in the Installation guide.

I believe the procedure outlined above is the same procedure you
can use with the Fedora Boot install CD.
That is what I have done after upgrading to a new hard drive
to reinstall grub.
