[ltp] Thinkpad buttons under 2.6.9?

[morpheus]

I've been able to write DVD-RW disks with no problem in my T42p. I tried
XCD-Roast but it kept getting errors writing the tracks, so I used
XCD-Roast to create .iso files, then used growisofs to burn the disks. 
I've had no problem using re-writable and write-once media, both DVDs
and CDs.
I haven't tried DVD-RAM...mostly because I don't have the media.  I used
to have a DVD-RAM drive and disks but sold them a few years ago.
