Hello there,
I have the same problem but results are different at my side. After I installed SuSE 9.0 Pro, everything worked fine: cdrecord, kooka, digital camera, etc... then suddenly things stopped working one by one. In some cases, I still could use them as root (i.e.: cdrecord) but now not even root can do much with those devices/utils...
I did the "resmgr login <username> :0" and it returned a "sucess" - but cdrecord still doesn't work for neither my user (martin) nor root ... :-/
As root I issued a 'cdrecord -scanbus' and got all this crap on /var/log/messages:
<snip>
Which is quite weird, as I haven't messed up with the modules or the CDRW-device itself... yet.
Information on this will be much appreciated!
Try "cdrecord dev=ATAPI: -scanbus"
That's what I need to do to get it to work without ide-scsi
I tried your suggestion as root and... oops! more weirdness...

There was a problem with 2.6.x kernels which has been resolved. There was quite a bit of vitriol on the kernel mailing list about this some time ago, looks like Jorg relented and later versions work.
