I'm trying to write some CDs under Ubuntu, and I've hit a few problems.

Normally I would claim to be an expert but I hate things that are
meant to "just work" and don't and nobody wishes to tell where to
start. Unfortunately Linux is getting more and more like this, In fact
I would say more windows like in this.......

I'm trying to write some CDs and lets say it does not work.

Using the default inbuilt Gnome CD rom writer I get an error message
of "Error while copying" "Operation not supported by backend" which is
completely meaning less, (Really very windows like in nature!)

If I use Brasero is segments and dies when I try and burn  a cd. This
happens on both my Laptop and Desktop. both running Ubuntu 8.10.

The CDRom how to seams completely out of date, so have not really got
a clue of where to start.

Thanks

Peter.
