Usually it is what is already mentioned, as cdrecord doesn't work properly with atapi-cdrom. That's why you should enter hdX=ide-scsi in your /etc/grub.conf as mentionned >What is the output of : >cdrecord -scanbus >cdrecord -scanbus dev=ATAPI: >cat /proc/cmdline >? >Maybe the permissions on your devices or to cdrecord/readcd/cdrdao are >wrong. >You could try to run K3b as root and see if it helps. Cdrecord needs root-privileges to burn cd's. That's why there is a program there after installation called k3bsetup. You should run this, this corrects the privileges for you. Runs best under kde...hard to do, if you just have gnome installed... Cheers, Roger Also happy k3b-user without mouse, cause not working *g*
