[Sheflug] cd writing problem

[Peter Collier <pecb [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello everyone,
		         I installed SuSE 9.1 via ftp some time back and all has been well 
until 2 days ago. If I try to burn a cd with k3b or xcdroast, after it has 
written about half the cd, the computer comes virtually to a stand still. 
Clicking on anything takes an eternity to activate as does terminal commands, 
eg top.  In fact I've had to hard reboot at most times to get anywhere.  I do 
not have other applications running at the same time so memory shouldn't be 
an issue. Dual 850 pentium, 768 mem. I've installed all the SuSE updates 
available, perhaps there is a fault there.
	The resulting cd ( I was picking odd tracks off several cd's to make one cd) 
had a noise similar to a internet/moden noises instead of music.
	The machine has dual boot with libranet 2.81 2.4 kernel on the second hard 
drive. With libranet I had no problem writting the cd.
	Anyone have any pointers?
