If you have a light-scribe drive on your ubuntu box you might not have known that you don't have to be stuck using the simple labeler. Lacie has a 4L labeler build for linux. Though it only comes in an .rpm package this is easily overcome.
First make sure to get the lightscribe system software deb from here
and install.
Second download the 4L-labeler .rpm from here
[make sure to put it in your /home/you/ to save from changing directories later]
Third, open a terminal and put in:
sudo aptitude install alien
Wait until this has installed then:
sudo alien --scripts 4L-1.0-r6.i586.rpm
This will create the deb package.
Go to your home directory in nautilus and open the deb package you created.
The command for 4L has to be run as root so to launch:
alt-F2
gksu 4L-gui
Voila complete lightscribe labeling in Ubuntu!

Thanks, but doesn't the first link to the deb package supercede the lightscribe-1.8.15.1-linux-2.6-intel.rpm package?
I think you meant to say
sudo alien --scripts 4L-1.0-r6.i586.rpm
Thank you noted and changed sorry took so long cleaning up the mess.
