ossdvd specific changes:
* Mon Nov 28 2005 - Release of a GPL compliant 2.01.01a03-ossdvd
patch. The patch is for cdrtools-2.01.01a03.tar.bz2 and is adjusted
to work with linux kernel 2.6.12 or higher and can be compiled with
gcc-4.0.x. It also solves this bug : "cdrecord: Cannot get disk type."
* Mon Nov 28 2005 - Release of a adjusted GPL compliant patch,
called 2.01.01a01-2ossdvd. The patch is for
cdrtools-2.01.01a01.tar.bz2 and is adjusted to work with linux
kernel 2.6.12 or higher and can be compiled with gcc-4.0.x. It
also solves this bug : "cdrecord: Cannot get disk type."
* Tue Oct 25 2005 - a patch that fixes speed display when burning
DVDs. The first is quite obvious - I cannot understand why nobody
has done this fix. The second provides additional speed info because
the speed values in cdrecord are stored in integer variable which
truncates a speed, say, of 2.4 to 2.0. The patch is called
cdrtools-2.01.01a01-DVD-speed.patch.bz2 and should be applied
right after cdrtools-2.01.01a01-ossdvd.patch.bz2
