Issue with CD's...

by Keller, Tim

Hey All, I was able to make the cds with random linux stuff on them, but my other jobs to make the redhat cds and the debian cds got dropped because legitimate orders had to be run... So if people have the Redhat 7.1 and the Debian cd's bring them along. BTW, I've already scheduled an hour to use the burner to make the 10 copies for Staroffice so I should have them for the wlug meeting. Sorry for the screw up. Tim.

Andy, that would be great. If people are interested, I could throw it in the bulk copier and bring 20 copies to the wlug meeting.

RE: [Wlug] Suggestions on CD drive cleaners?

by Mike

Isopropyl alcohol is common but I doubt the lenses are glass so I would be leery at best. Try a bit of dish detergent on a cotton swab then rinse with clean swabs then dry. Be gentile though, I'm not too sure about the strength of a lens mechanism! (they just don't make thing as they should any more!)

Suggestions on CD drive cleaners?

by Brian J. Conway

My 6X-generation DVD drive has only recently decided that it will no longer read blue CD-Rs, but still reads pressed CDs and gold CD-Rs just fine. As the blue CD-Rs are a less reflective surface, I figured the lense might be a bit dusty and I should try cleaning the thing out (the CDs themselves are fine). Any suggestions on cleaning such a thing? Blowing a can of compressed air in the drive opening wasn't too effective. ;-) Brian J. Conway dogbert(a)clue4all.net "LINUX is obsolete" - Andrew S.
