I am also having troubles with my cdrw. I have never used it with Linux before so i 
have absolutly no idea about what i'm doing.

I have a Creative CD-RW 12-10-32x.

dmesg says:
hda: IBM-DHEA-38451, ATA DISK drive
hdc: CREATIVE CD-RW RW1210E, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hda: 16514064 sectors (8455 MB) w/472KiB Cache, CHS=1027/255/63, UDMA(33)
hdc: ATAPI 32X CD-ROM CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache, DMA
Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.12

/sbin/lsmod shows no scsi modules loaded so i do /sbin/modprobe scsi_mod
no errors.

/sbin/lsmod shows:
Module                  Size  Used by
scsi_mod               91072   0

dmesg now shows:
SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00

/usr/bin/cdrecord -scanbus shows:
Cdrecord 1.10 (i586-mandrake-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2001 J�rg Schilling
cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open SCSI driver.
cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you are root.

/sbin/lsmod now shows:
Module                  Size  Used by
sg                     28624   0  (autoclean) (unused)
scsi_mod               91072   1  [sg]
