I can confirm this bug.

xubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn.
Xfce 4 Desktop Environment version 4.4.0 (Xfce 4.4)
Xfburn 2.0.2 Xfce 4.4.0

A CD ROM which is capable to write, at least under Ubuntu 6.10.

What I do:
Insert a new CD. Open Xfburn. Choose burn CD Image. Choose the ISO file. either leave the speed as default or choose a lower one to be on the safe side. Hit "write the image".
Result:
No action but some info as: Estimated writing speed: no info FIFO buffer: no info device buffer: no info / View output Use wodim dev=help to get a list of possible SCSI transport specifiers.
What expected:
To burn the ISO image to the CD
Reproducable or not:
Always

Some more info and comment for developers:

* Bug #83077 may be related with or may be a duplicate of this bug.

* A search in Ubuntu Forums for "xfburn" and "xfburn iso" give many results. But the most shocking one for me is the one with "xfburn doesn't burn iso" title at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=367411&highlight=xfburn+iso . From that thread, its understood that the issue was valid and known even during the Edgy era. People advices each other some other tools! Some chat on IRC #xubuntu gave me the same impression. Seems that almost everybody knows that Xfburn doesn't work in some way and they accept it as if something normal. "Just install x, y, z!" For me, if the default burner tool of a distro is not working in a similar or same way in two consecutive release, the issue may be related with seriousness in working style in general, apart from having another ordinary single bug.

Regards.
