Hey thanks! It's been awhile since I've checked that bug report. They've asked if I've had the same issue with newer versions of Ubuntu.. but the PC gets used a lot and I just haven't had the time for a complete new install etc. (it's planned though).
I added that to my Software Sources on Gutsy and also added the Signing Key as in the instructions. After updating the Sources, do I just have to install/reinstall "cdrecord" and "mkisofs", or is there also supposed to be a "CDRTools" package that should be installed to replace "CDRKit"?
When I finally get around to it I plan to reinstall the PC with a clean install of Lucid Lynx (or possibly Hardy Heron). I just have so much other stuff to do that I'm still running Gutsy for now, and have been dual booting WinXP when I need to burn something (which is a pain when I'm working on something and have to boot XP just to burn a disc). I haven't tried burning with either Hardy or Lucid, so I thought I'd ask.. Do those versions have the same issues?
