OP, the kernel upstream wanted you to test - 2.6.25.4 - is now the current version of kernel-linus in 2008 Spring's /contrib/updates repo (it got an update). So you can test it easily now.
Sorry for late answer.
After having installed 2.6.25.4-1mdv, K3B says it wrote DVD successfully but media is corrupt. It cannot be read.
I have installed kernel-linus-2.6.25.4-1mdv using Software Managemet program:
Code:
[root@localhost mdutku]# uname -a
Linux localhost 2.6.25.4-1mdv #1 Sat May 24 16:29:47 EDT 2008 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2800+ GNU/Linux
[root@localhost mdutku]#
To whom it may concern: This package resides in System->Kernel and Hardware part in browser field of Software Management. Installing this kernel automatically updated Grub too. I did not need to do anything else.
However media is corrupt. I have used K3B default settings. It did not work. Media info returns me:
Code:
[root@localhost mdutku]# dvd+rw-mediainfo /dev/sr0

K3B says that it wrote about 6x speed. K3B never aborted or reported anything during burn. I have not seen any error in /var/log/messages, syslog etc.
