<mahmoud> sensiva r u there
<Pronco> I still have a problem within the CD burner. b0rked.
<mahmoud> ok if u can't burn it
<Pronco> Error always came up within the finalization.
<mahmoud> bring the empty CDs with u tomorrow and we will try to burn it there
<mahmoud> i hane burned about 20 CDs till now
<mahmoud> and i think to bring the empty CDs 2morrow with me
<Pronco> That's my intention. However, investigation here is a must. CD burner issue has to be tracked out.
<Pronco> How do you burn your CDs? command line or a GUI
<mahmoud> GUI
<Pronco> Write to disc, I assume.
<mahmoud> no i burned them by
<mahmoud> brasero
<Pronco> brasero works here. but CD is empty, still.
<Pronco> No error occurred. But nothing still blank.
<Pronco> weird.
<mahmoud> i think it after burning it seems to be blank but actually it burned
<JeoTheLeo> so mahmoud and Pronco, might I ask you what do you do as support for linux?
<mahmoud> we do what we talk about now :D
<JeoTheLeo> online technical support?
<JeoTheLeo> no programming/IT-company maintenance
<JeoTheLeo> etc
<JeoTheLeo> or project management of some sort
<mahmoud> no we are talking about tomorrow event isA
<JeoTheLeo> oh neat
<JeoTheLeo> the one in cairo uni, right?
<JeoTheLeo> btw, are there any hacker events done in egypt?
<mahmoud> and there will be sessions about programing, graphics and etc
<mahmoud> i don't know
<JeoTheLeo> hmm
<JeoTheLeo> well anyways I'm happy I found this irc channel
<JeoTheLeo> getting in touch with linuxed egyptians is definitely exciting
<JeoTheLeo> then getting in touch with linuxed egyptian hackers
<JeoTheLeo> would be superb XD
<mahmoud> :)
<JeoTheLeo> it's like "I thought i was the only one" XD
<mahmoud> pronco do u sove the problem
<JeoTheLeo> well not really, but I couldn't get in contact with anyone else
<Pronco> mahmoud, still investigating.
<mahmoud> at all we can burn them 2morrow isA
<JeoTheLeo> about tomorrow's event...will they be documented and how about videos?
<Pronco> Track 01: 7 of 702 MB written (fifo 100%) [buf 99%] 8.4x.
<Pronco> let's see.
<Pronco> write track data: error after 37394432 bytes
<Pronco> wodim: A write error occured.
<Pronco> No hope.
<JeoTheLeo> 64-bit iso?
<mahmoud> no 32-bit
<mahmoud> pronco did u try brasero
<mahmoud> i think it would solve the problem
<Pronco> mahmoud, also not working.
<Pronco> mahmoud, let's try once again.
<mahmoud> i burned them in 16x
<Pronco> mahmoud, enta betghesny ya3ni.

<Pronco> haven't yet checked it.
<JeoTheLeo> is this event done every time a new distro issues?
<Pronco> JeoTheLeo, Planned to be on every release. Hopefully.
<Pronco> mahmoud, trying with 16x + burnproof enabled
<mahmoud> ya rab
<Pronco> yady el nela, error while burning. unknown error occurred.
<mahmoud> pronco, the name tags have been printed
<Pronco> Image is 702M while the CD is 700M
<Pronco> Is it related?
<mahmoud> u can verify them
<mahmoud> by md5
<Pronco> Verify meen. Did I say that the issue has been resolved.
<mahmoud> good
<JeoTheLeo> hmmm
<Pronco> I am just wondering here. the image is 702M while the disc CD is 700M. Perhaps it was trying to let me figure it out.
<JeoTheLeo> lol
<JeoTheLeo> 702>700 indeed
<mahmoud> mesh mohem el mohem it is working :D
<Pronco> mahmoud, still empty.
<mahmoud> no try to boot from it
<Pronco> No media found.
<mahmoud> i remember that it happens with me
<mahmoud> but in fact it was burned
<Pronco> tested in virtual machine. but nothing "no media"
<mahmoud> tyb enta 3andak another writer
<mahmoud> ?
<Pronco> mahmoud, what's your CDs capacities ?
<mahmoud> 700mb
<JeoTheLeo> may be there is something wrong with the image itself...why not tested on virtual machine while you're at it? just a suggestion
