I've just installed an ASUS CRW-5224A CD writer in my debian computer and I've got it running under scsi emulation. I've just attempted to burn a CD at the moment but it took 15 minutes to get about 10% through and then aborted. The log for it is below. The writer works fine running under windows, I burned the debian installation cds using it.
