If you have an iso file then you just need to use cdrecord.

BTW, do you have cdrecord installed?
If you have then:
1. first find where is your CD-RW drive:
    cdrecord -scanbus
This will produce some output like this:
scsibus0:
       0,0,0     0) *
       0,1,0     1) *
       0,2,0     2) *
       0,3,0     3) *
       0,4,0     4) *
       0,5,0     5) *
       0,6,0     6) 'SAF     ' 'CD-RW4224S      ' '1.41' Removable CD-ROM
       0,7,0     7) *

Now you know your CD-RW is "0,6,0". So use that.

cdrecord dev=0,6,0 /home/eric/1-8.0-Traktopel-beta1-i586.iso

and that's it. I would suggest you to read the cdrecord man page before actually 
burning a CD, otherwise you may end up burning a coaster.

If you don't see anything as the output of 'cdrecord -scanbus', then I would suggest 
you to read
the CD-Writing Howto  http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/CD-Writing-HOWTO.html.
