I don't mean to be a pest, but can you send me a pointer to exactly where you have explained how to burn CDs under FC2. A modest search of the archives hasn't turned up anything. Ditto /usr/src/linux/README and the files under /usr/src/linux/Documentation.
The latest cdrecord upgrade has completely broken CD burning on my system; the last audio CD is **quite** amusing and not unpleasant to listen to, but nothing like the original sound.
Many thanks for all your good postings:

I'm not clear on what you're needing help with: the specifics of how to use cdrecord (or the much easier to use k3b), or is your problem associated with the "can't burn as a non-root user in kernel 2.6.8.x"?
k3b is very intuitive and does a nice job burning cds with a minimum of fuss. However if you are using the 2.6.8.x kernel, you can't burn as a non-root user. Your choices are to either a) su to the root user and burn away, or b) boot into an earlier kernel.
This tutorial may be of some help: http://penguinsolutions.org/fedora/cdrw/
Here's a trick I've used to help teach myself the necessary cdrecord commands: burn in k3b, but make a note of the output log. It provides the specific cdrecord command that k3b created to get the job done.
Hope this helps, Clint
