Okay, we need a little more information.
What precise version of Linux 2.6? 2.6.0-test5? What model/make of CDRW/DVD drive? What interface? e.g. SCSI, IDE, USB, Firewire.... What does 'dmesg' dump out? And yes, the .config might be useful.

If it's an IDE drive, you'll want this _enabled_ before you'll be able to write CDs. Most of the burner software that I know of look for a SCSI CD burner, not IDE. ide-scsi is intended for making an IDE CD burner appear as a SCSI device.
Don't reply directly to me -- I know quite a fair bit about Linux, but compared to the majority of this list, I'm a newbie -- your reply is best looked at by one of the gurus here. - -- +-------------------------------------------------------------+ | Stuart Longland stuartl at longlandclan.hopto.org | | Brisbane Mesh Node: 719 http://stuartl.cjb.net/ | | I haven't lost my mind - it's backed up on a tape somewhere | | Griffith Student No: Course: Bachelor/IT (Nathan) | +-------------------------------------------------------------+ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org
