[conspire] cd burning giving slight errors

[Peter Knaggs]

Hi Sean,

Thanks for taking a look. I added the -dao flag,
still get errors writing (less, though, only four wrong bytes
this time).

Output looks as follows.

I'm using a CD-RW media now, to avoid making
so many coasters.

The only thing I can think of that I changed on this
system was adding some more memory.
I've run the memtest and it passed OK,
and I've done repeated parallel kernel builds
which ran fine, so I guess the memory is OK.

I'm debugging a problem in Inkscape at the
moment, quite bizarre behavior, but at least I get
to practice debugging a C++ program for a change.

Cheers,
Peter.
