Unless I'm a total lunatic, it's a fact... :-) Lately it has started
giving me "Power calibration error" messages more and more until it
became unusable, but if you know how to resurrect it, I can send it to

README.sony mentions CDU-924. Maybe that's the difference between 924
and 926?
Or maybe cdrecord notices that it's a Sony drive and turns on -data
automatically (like the SWABAUDIO driver flag)?
