It's usually a bad idea to upgrade Fedora Core packages with external
updates. Better keep FC3's k3b package, so you benefit from patches,
integration work and security/bug-fix updates.

To see where k3b fails, k3b's internal debug output might give a clue.
k3b offers debug output, so it can be looked at or saved to disk.

You should be able to use: -dev=/dev/cdwriter

dev=1.2.0 SCSI-style notation looks wrong (I'm not sure whether dots

What have you changed after the first week when it worked?  Hopefully
you didn't load any IDE/ATAPI SCSI emulation kernel modules.

Have you modified /etc/cdrecord.conf?
