[Tarko <taruko.sama@xxxxxxxxx>]

The only way for me to get Lappie to mount the CD-Rom was to use
MountManager.
I'm using, or tempting to use, Brasero Disk Burner, the one that comes with
the distro I guess.

You have to be aware of something: I used Linux many, many years ago and
only recently got back to it. Quite a leap of fate, as I didnt even kept a
windows partion on my Laptop: 100% Linux. So all my advice are educated
guess based on previous knowledge, the internet and my computer-knowledge,
which is mostly Win-based.

But meh: I'm ready to give it a shot: with two (or more) looking at the
problem, more chance of finding a solution.




I find it REALLy weord the 20min set-thing... The only thing I can tink of
that changes in the first 20min is temperature... I'll look around my
settings, see if I changed something or... whatever.


Cheers,
Tark

Dimitte nobis debita nostra,
sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris.
Et ne nos inducas in tentationem,
sed libera nos a malo.
