And there's still no detailed description of when exactly you get what error. There are a very few similar problem reports (with various distributions) findable with Google, but where details are posted, most look like problems with cdrecord drivers or concurrent device access by magicdev/autorun (which you should disable, too). Sure, as a last resort, on his own safe desktop machine, the user can try setting the setuid bit on cdrecord. But that would be a rather crude way and only a work-around for other problems (like general problems with an USB CD-burner).
