I've experienced the same error message from cdrecord both via GUI progs and 
the command line.  What has me perplexed is that the same burner worked 
perfectly under 7.1 and is now unable to even burner a CD-RW without the same 
error as a CD-R.  Something has changed between versions and it's got me 
stuffed how to fix it.
My burner is a LG CED-8080B which I allowed both versions of Mandrake to set 
up during installation.  It's IDE using ide-scsi emulation.  It is spec'ed at 
writing 8xCD-R, 4xCD-RW & reading 32xMax.
Under 7.1 I had perfect results using gcombust for both data and audio CD 
burning.
Perhaps one of the kernel gurus might be able to help.
