With CDR_DEVICE=0,6,0 and CDR_SPEED=2

cdrecord -v -audio Trackx.wav

It already knows that it needs the -swab for the 926.  I actually wanted
to try turning it OFF to see if that was the problem, but I never got
around to recompiling it so it didn't force the 926 to -swab.  (There is
no -noswab option for drives with it (quirk entried?) hard coded.)

I then tried doing a data disc, and it didn't work either, so I am
guessing the the -swab is NOT the problem.  I also tried going from raw
pcm out of TOSHA and from .wav, if I remember right.  Same results.  It
also doesn't sound like wrong-endian data...  it clicks at a constant
rate, not static messy noise.

To burn the data disk, I did a simple cdrecord -v test9660.img

The image is fine, as I can use the vn driver to mount_cd9660 it.  I can't
mount it from the CD, however.  The track is there, if I do a cdrecord
-toc, or whathaveyou, but nothing can access it.

In any case, it has been a couple weeks since I last recompiled cdrecord,
so I'm off to do a cvsup ports-distfile && make.  :)

At least now I know that it SHOULD work if others can burn CDs.  :)

Later......						<Doug>
