Has any one gotten the CD ROM Burner that comes with a DELL Inspirion 8200 working? If so what did you do, or would you mind posting a link to what you used to get it working?
The device appears to be /dev/hdc. cat /proc/ide/ide1/hdc/model shows:
MATSHITA CD-RW UJDA360
lsmod shows:
Module Size Used by Tainted: GF ide-scsi 7632 0 sg 25900 0 (autoclean) (unused)
scsi_mod 51380 2 (autoclean) [ide-scsi sg]
cdrecord -scanbus Cdrecord 2.01a14 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2003 Jörg Schilling cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open '/dev/pg*'. Cannot open SCSI driver. cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you are root. cdrecord: For possible transport specifiers try 'cdrecord dev=help'.
Do I need to create some /dev/pgN devices? (presumably with mknod) ?
The problem is that you still have ide-cd support (probably) compiled into the kernel. Because of this, the CD-RW is grabbed by this driver before the ide-scsi module can load. Adding 'hdc=ide-scsi' or just completely removing ide-cd support from the kernel will prevent the CD-RW from being grabbed by another driver.
