Hi, Not sure where this should be addressed to but here goes. I've been using mandrake for a while now myself and the most common complaint I get from other new users is as follows It recognised my cdburner (and called it scsi-ide) But I cant get any of the cdburning programs to recognise my cdrom(atapi ide) so I can burn on the fly like i do in windows.
My suggestion is that detection of a cd burner, then alters any atapi cdroms detected to be scsi-ide links also. Can these co-exist with the std setup, ie links created but not obvious at the GUI level except when detected by programs such as xcdroast. dcd IMHO this would make the whole cdrom cdburning experience much easier especially as most howtos convert your cdrom to scsi-ide are written for the old /dev system no longer used by Mandrake
