1) For modules, you have to do special things in /etc/devfsd.conf.
E.g.: My sound driver is a module, so I had to add:
REGISTER dsp MKOLDCOMPAT
UNREGISTER dsp RMOLDCOMPAT
LOOKUP dsp MODLOAD
REGISTER dsp PERMISSIONS paul.paul rw-rw-rw-
(The above is probably non-optimal, but it does work.)
2) CD-burning apps do things through SCSI (or SCSI emulation for ATAPI
drives). (AFAIUI.)
