There appears to be something seriously wrong with the setup here. The writer 
(an HP 9100) appears to be /dev/scd0 mounted as /mnt/cdrom2.

Permissions are as follows:

/dev/scd0  Block Device
rw-rw----  daryl     cdwriter     scsi/host1/bus0/target2/lun0/cd

/dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target2//lun0/cd
rw-rw----  daryl    cdwriter

In Gnome-Toaster the preferences refuses to scan the bus to find the writer 
automatically.  The settings entered manually are :

Device File  /dev/scd0  Scsi ID  1,0,2,0
Mountpoint /mnt/cdrom2

Drive is a CD writer
Use SCSI Interface for DAE

The file on the cd is recognised but attempting to blank the Cdr/w produces 
the remark:

couldn't run client. Permission denied

GCombust recognises the CD writer on the bus and identifies the correct unit 
but when asked to check the scsi settings produces the remark:

cdrecord failed to recognise the selected drive
(wrong SCSI settings or no permission to device)!

X-CD-Roast is the least fussy as it identifies the writer by name, identif#ies 
the bus and location and appears happy to delete a file from the cd - but it 
doesn't burn a cd that is recognised by a Windoze m/c

Sheesh.

Daryl
