i'm all out of cdrs to burn test1 onto and i really want to give it a try. in trying to find a way around my financial inability, i noticed that my dvd drive is a dvd-rw (i put it in from an old comp i found in my house).
when i try to use the nautilus burning utility it says that i must first insert a blank disk of the type "CD-R or CD-RW." it sees my drive and gives it a different list of speeds than my CD-RW which works perfectly.
also, when i insert a blank DVD, the drive just seems to read and read and read until i take it out.
some info:

if you think some /proc/ide/hdc/... info might be helpful, let me know.
