I have a 9500 cd writer and would like to try burning cd's with Linux but
haven't a clue how to get started .....

I have installed the cd rom burner into the system that is running Linux
Mandrake 7.2 and have plenty of blank cd's .....  I tried the CDROAST
program but it looks at the folder I have selected and scans the files then
gives an error "broken pipe" I don't rmr the exact error but I was dinking
around with the settings of the program and came across a section that looks
like it needs a lund number and address for the cdrom burner ....  I am
guessing that the burner is too new to be seen by the software as a burner
but it reads cd's fine ......  in the app hard drake it sees the burner as
well as its information .......   is there a place that might have a driver
file ....(not sure what its called in Linux) or do I just need to find the
id/lund/???   information ( of witch I do not know how to do ) .....  I
tried the cdrecord command with the -scanbus delimiter from the terminal but
it did not find a drive .....   do I have the cd installed correctly? ....I
removed the old cd that was in the system so as to just have the cd rom
burner ....    any help in this would be greatly appreciated ......
