[ale] Linux and Lightscribe Technology

[James Taylor]

My experience with VMware and CD/DVD devices is that they are slooow.
Th latest version of WMware Workstation may support burning, but I don't know that I would depend on it.

I'm running Ubuntu Hardy, and I have a Lightscribe burner.  I'm able to get
SimpleLabeler to work fine.  However, I and some other Ubuntu users have run
into a communications error in the middle of a label burn using 4L.  I am
frustrated, as I needed to provide some CD's to a client, and I wanted to
use Lightscribe to provide a nice professional label using their logo, but I
had to settle for a simple text one.

I have been wondering if it would work through VMWare since I have an XP and
an OSX image working there, but I haven't given that a try yet.
