5.8 NeroLINUX seems to be notoriously trying to
open a network connection to some server. Does
it have some sort of built-in Trojan transmitting
my data to some remote database?
This is just the freedb routine trying to identify the CDs in your disc drives. You
can deactivate this routine in the preferences dialog of NeroLINUX.
5.9 I tried to burn a disc with a few files on it. When I
clicked on record, NeroLINUX went through all
the files and recorded them onto the disc.
However, I cannot mount the result. What went
wrong?
You probably added your files to the Track Editor rather than the File Editor with
the result that NeroLINUX created a CD containing several data tracks each
being a copy of one of the files you added (just as if those files had been track
images). Add your files to the file system editor and your media will work
correctly.
5.10 NeroLINUX is running fine on my root account
but it only causes error messages if run from my
normal user account or it doesn't display any
tracks for my CD-ROM drives. Aren't Linux users
supposed to do their daily work as a normal
user?
True. However, NeroLINUX requires the user to have access privileges to the
devices which are not granted to normal users by default within any standard
setup.
See “Setting correct permissions on the devices files” section in the NeroLINUX
manual for more details about how to do this.
5.11 Burning a DVD takes too much time
This is probably due to the fact that you are using a 2.4 kernel and that your DVD
recorder is configured to use the ‘ide-scsi’ driver. Updating your kernel to a 2.6
one and then configure your DVD recorder so that it uses the ‘ide-cdrom’ driver
should solve this problem.
