k3b burning faster then i set.

ok im getting alot of cd coasters from k3b. i will try to burn music at 8x. and then when it goes to burn the cd it seems to start at 8x then climbs to 20x in a few seconds and about up to 28x or so... does anyone have a fix for this?

Try turning off dma on your cdrom with this command:

hdparm -d0 -k1 /dev/cdrom
