Hi. I like the tool, but it has one hangup. Drag and drop from Nautilus to GnomeBaker does not work directly. I get around the problem by dragging the audio .wave files from the Source CD (in Nautilus) to the Desktop or other folder. Then it works to drag and drop them into GnomeBaker from there.

Thank you!
Brasero is just too simple and not always working properly…

By default in 10.04 LTS, you can use Brasero Disc Burner

BTW, thanks for your info.

I have trouble burning Cd’s with this program . Some times it will work but if I try to make more then one copy it comes up as a Fail . I tried to down load it but that failed also. WHAT CAN I DO.

Have GnomeBaker installed, works perfectly!
Just using Ubuntu for a couple of months, works great.
Only looking for some good dvd-authoring programs (like Ulead or XtoDVD). Installed Wine, got DVDShrink and DVDDecrypter running (not 100%), but they`ll do fine.

Dear konark:
Sounds like you need to have a hard disk installed. ALL OS need to have a Hard disk for cache purposes etc. and you CANT run a system without one, even from a LIVE CD. You appear to be confused over the fact that a live disk can run from just a drive, but it is just for a demo and does NOT provide all OS functions.
Best wishes,
P

HEY!! My hard disk got corrupt using windows and therefore I switched to various linux versions that can be run from cd as my hard disk has gone for repair. I could not boot from pendrive. I got to know that I can make a cd to boot and then use ubuntu 8.10 from pen drive. I made that Iso as per instructions. now they have said to write it in a cd.I have only one Dvd writer in which I am running ubuntu live cd.To writ to another cd i have to take live cd out,but ubuntu refuses to remove this cd…
what should I do as I want to free my dvd rw while using linux..
please please reply to my e mail as i am not very frequent visitor to internet.
konarkuppal90@gmail.com
if all goes well i will switch to linux
forever…
thanks

When I use the DVD copy tool, it only run for 4 secs then says completed. What could I be doing wrong. I am using dell 630 with DVD RW combo drive.

Gnomebaker crashes while adding files to a project. No error messages, it just closes. This happens on two different machines. Both have Ubuntu 8.10 installed.

Gnomebaker repeatedly crashes with no error message visible. Re-installation does not correct this problem, even after re-installing. Even upgrading to Intrepid did not solve this.

Tried burning some files to an existing CD-RW disc. The disc already contains some files. I clicked on the Data CD project and added the files I want to burn into CD. I clicked the Burn button. It showed the burning process status bar in progress then a message stating “burn failure” I tried using both 700 MB and 800 MB CD-RW and does not work. Any suggestion on this. Thanks.
