I am the king of non-helpfulness today, but for what it's worth: Linux kernel 2.6 does away with ide-scsi driver for ATAPI IDE DVD/CD burning. The driver is still available (see Linux kernel mailing list for lots on the subject, e.g. http://testing.lkml.org/slashdot.php?mid=435847) but it is not necessary from a kernel/hardware perspective for burning anymore.
Fair warning: there are still lots of little issues with 2.6, but I've been running 2.6.0-test11 happily for a few weeks now. One of the lucky ones, I guess. Of course, I'm assuming you're running 2.4.x and so that doesn't do you much good right now... :-P Curtis On Tue, 2003-12-16 at 19:18, Nick W wrote: > OK, after all that typing its my turn to do the asking.
