I am helping a friend to set up his IDE CD-RW.
He has set up everything correct and can write CD's using X-CD-Roast as
root user.
Problem is burning cd's as a normal user.
X-CD-Roast has been set up to allow normal users, but when we want to
write a CD, the following error is given:
--<snip>--

Looks like it tries to access the device through the parallel interface
(/dev/pg1). This does not make sense. Why would it use that device as
normal user, but the correct interface (/dev/sg1) as root user?
Any ideas?
Thanks
