End of media??

xcdroast or gtoaster would be good bets. Recent versions of Nautilus have some CD-burning functionality built-in that I've never tried, but it's probably pretty simplified.

I use cdrecord personally. Xcdroast is a gui front end to it, which is nice too.

for example to make a data cdrom
the command line example would be like:

mkisofs -o ~/your.image.iso /directory/of/files/you/want/on/cdrom
then
cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 speed=24 ~/your.image.iso

were dev is the scsi ID of your cdrom burner (traditional ATA standards do not provide the functionality that a cdrom burner needs, so it is nessicary to have a IDE cdrom use SCSI emulation for the extra commands... windows does something similar, I think. But newer stuff has workarounds, I think the new 2.6 will incorporate these work arounds)

Does anybody find that using the "speed=x" option in cdrecord is ignored? I was having buffer overrun problems, so I changed the speed to "speed=12" and it still tries to burn at over 20x.
