I am guessing, since it is a writer, it is scsi emulated, and you have a link /dev/cdrecorder --> /dev/sr0. If you do, then make a link for cdrom and dvd, i.e. "ln -s /dev/sr0 /dev/dvd" and "ln -s /dev/sr0 /dev/cdrom". If you writer is not /dev/sr0, then make sure you have a link dvd pointing to the right device. HTH
Sounds reasonable.. how do I determine whether that device is /dev/sr0 or something else.
P_S
Nevermind... I really need to learn how to read.. :D I have /dev/cdrecord linked to dev/sr0 P_S
