4L (LaCie's LightScribe Labeler for Linux) : advice wished!

kozaki · 2006-11-03 23:20:47

As K3b Founder Sebastian Trueg said, "We're happy to see that LaCie is developing tools for Linux users, and are pleased to work with them to make it happen. With the LaCie LightScribe Labeler for Linux, [Linux] users now have access to the latest disc-labeling technology from LightScribe."
http://www.k3b.org/

I'm making the PKGBUILDs but some advice on the process would be helpfull
So far, installed with those PKGBUILDs, 4L-gui launches on my Arch (but seems to lack some functionnality) and 4L-cli segfaults even if it prints the options.

_Be aware that those PKGBUILD are not finished yet_

Thanks for working on this!
I have Lite-On SHW-16H5S so I'll do testing of these tools in near future.
Sadly I have no time now to help you with these PKGBUILDs.
I think it segfaults because it's compiled with different libs or something like this.

iphitus · 2006-11-04 00:12:33

no source code?

No. Because LightScribe is closed and patented.
At least LaCie has made these tools. This is just a start. Will see what happens next.

Although [LaCie] wanted to support the development of an Open-Source software, licensing issues always stood in the way of that. Now they released the Closed-Source but free LightScribe Labeling application 4L for Linux and it is about time Linux users get to use LightScribe

Remember lightscribe is HP patented.

Romashka > Hi
Yeap, it seems using LightScribe on Arch may be a little more complicated than just to put the .rpm's files into AL...

I think I missed some dependencies; may someone confirm this ?

I've uploaded lightscribe, lightscribe-labeler, lightscribe-sdk and 4l packages into AUR, but LightScribe is not working in Arch currently.
This is well-known issue which exists on many other distros too.
I'm trying to find the reason why it works only on some specific versions of some distros.
(thanks for help, kozaki!)

skottish · 2007-01-27 00:09:38

I filed a ticket for support with Lightscribe last weekend, but they haven't gotton back to me. I was intentionally vague about what system that I'm running simply because I wanted them to write back.

"Err... gee... I'm on 64 bit Arch Linux."

Yeah, that's going to get a dialog going!
