I think it's wong with 2.6.8. For security reasons it won't allow you to run setuid root programs. The only way you can run cdrecord is as the root user.
You're abolutely right. I didn't think of limits of setuid.
AFAIK xcdroast is just a front end to cdrecord just like k3b.
Sure, it is. But I prefered to use the app I'm simply more used to.
Maybe I'm wrong but I can't see how running a binary as root user is any more secure than running it setuid root.
Sure, more secure. But also quite braindead. By default it is more secure, because you cannot 'pass' permissions.
