Hi,
Some weeks agos it was still correct, you would have had to set up SCSI Emulation for the two dirves in order to use them to copy and burn CDs.
This is not needed anymore. You have however to update to the very latest cdrecord version, which I think it not yet on SuSE's ftp. You can get the source from the author's website and compile it, it is easy.
Then use k3b to burn your CDs, it is written with IDE support in mind. Again use the very latest k3b.
Do I understand you correctly that I am able to use an IDE writer without the IDE-SCSI emulation?
NO. This will only be possible with the comming 2.5.48+ Linux kernel stuff.
If so, can you please give the version numbers needed?
Maybe k3b together with the "latest" cdrecord did something around it, but I know that the latest cdrecord _NEED_ the new 2.5.48+ block layer stuff to work without IDE-SCSI (better call it ATA-SCSI) emulation.
