Can you do an "lsmod" and post the results along with those from
"cdrecord -scanbus". A list of your modules.conf would also be handy.
CDRW is a can of worms if you install it into an already running
Mandrake system! Also have you run the script from the howto to check
your setup (basicly what I requested above), and checked the /dev/cdrom[
01] link is pointing to the correct place? I recently added a Sony 140E
which now works well, but it was close to being installed in a windoze
machine just to get a working setup after quite a few hours of work.
