"sg" is "scsi generic", commonly used for things like scanners. 2.6 kernels, unlike 2.4 kernels, do not require ide-scsi to burn to ATAPI CD writers. The 2.6 kernel also uses modprobe.conf rather than modules.conf; you shouldn't need any of the lines above in your modprobe.conf file. Paul. -- Paul Howarth <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
