Hi All,
I recently purchased a Sony CD-writer Model CRX230ED. Well
"hwbrowser"or Xcdroast can correctly guess that that it's around
dev=0,0,0.
But when I do a
$cdrecord -scanbus
(w/ root it gives me:)

cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open '/dev/pg*'. Cannot open
SCSI driver.
cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you are
root.
cdrecord: For possible transport specifiers try 'cdrecord dev=help'.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
But when I do this , which I found on the web:
$ cdrecord -scanbus -dev=ATAPI
------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well will this behavior affect my writing process? If I try to burn cd
with cdrecord, Will it be ok or shall I try safely with xcroast?
Is it possible to restore cdrecord -scanbus to a normal behavior w/o the
aditional arguments? Thanks. I don't really know how the system is dealing
w/ it right now. Any explanations would be appreciated. :-)
With kind regards,
Didier.
