I just upgraded from FC2, clean install for the upgrade. But now my CD-R does not work. Well, that is not true it works fine as root but not as my normal user. I have tried to look for a bug report in Bugzilla to no avail. TIA. I am using a USB connected CD-R. cdrecord output as normal user: cdrecord: For possible transport specifiers try 'cdrecord dev=help'. cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'.
