You may want to consider X-CD Roast for your CD burning. You can get
information on it at:
http://www.fh-muenchen.de/rz/xcdroast
It came with my Mandrake 6.1 distribution.
X-CD-Roast uses a command line program "cdrecord". The home page for cdrecord
has all the information you may need to set up your cdrw. It can be found at:
http://www.fokus.gmd.de/research/cc/glone/employees/joerg.schilling/private/cdrecord.html
The information for ide/atapi drives are at:

There was also a discussion regarding this on the KDE mail list. Check the
