Hi all,
Can you tell me if there is currently support in the
kernel for HP's new LightScribe technology?
(http://h30015.www3.hp.com/hp_dec/lightscribe/index_FL.asp).
If there is not, are there plans for it?
Supposdly, you can burn DVD's or CD's, then flip the
media over and burn a label directly onto the CD or
DVD (no ink or toner...the laser burns it directly
onto the CD)
Thanks
Alan

I don't know of any. Are the specs on the hardware open?

To be honest, I'm not sure. I wrote an email to HP
using the address on their LightScribe technology
page, but they never responded...I'm thinking that's a
big no....But there are Windows drivers to reverese
engineer...How fun!

Didn't Yamaha have something like this with their T@2 (tatoo) drives?
IIRC it was supported in cdrecord without needing kernel support...
