This means no ATAPI support for that kernel. If you want CD writing support you have to go the traditional scsi emulation way, but this will disturb the rest of the kernels you have.
I dont get it I am using the standard fedora kernels, why has this suddenly go shitty for me?
I am not familiar with the differences between the kernels but I would assume that both have direct ATAPI support which means they have ide-cd module present.
Do an lsmod for the kernel version that works and see what modules are loaded up.
lsmod shows sg & scsi_mod loaded but no ide-cd, and now with the cdrecord.conf ammendments I can burn an iso as root using cdrecord using kernel-2.6.8-1.521.
I still cannot use k3b it just hangs at "Scanning Devices...." and shows as dead "D" in ps.
If i boot into kernel-2.6.7-1.494.2.2 the following even cdrecord -v -scanbus dev=ATAPI hangs as root. lsmod shows sg & scsi_mod but no ide-cd.
Asked another fc2 user in #fedora on freenode to check if they had scsi_mod and sg which they did, so this might be heading in the wrong direction.
Thanks Pybe
Updated to the latest cdrtools and k3b. cdrecord -v -scanbus dev=ATAPI still works, but k3b as root still hangs and dies.
[pybe@help pybe]$ rpm -q k3b cdrecord k3b-0.11.14-0.FC2.1 cdrecord-2.01.1-0.FC2.1 [pybe@help pybe]$ uname -r 2.6.8-1.521 [pybe@help pybe]$ ps waux | grep k3b root 3492 1.0 2.9 38192 18876 pts/0 D 17:36 0:01 k3b pybe 3564 0.0 0.0 4672 596 pts/1 S 17:39 0:00 grep k3b
Has anyone else got any issues similar to this?
Why do I seem to be the only one who cannot use k3b even as root?
aaarrrrrggggg!

"D" does *not* mean dead. ("X" means dead.) "D" means waiting for uninteruptible IO (probably so sort of Disk IO....)
