Hi,

Nope; out of the box, the installer found it and installed it correctly
(and installed the ide-scsi package, with correct additions to LILO).  I
use cdrecord from the command line.  Works beautifully (the BURN-Proof is
a dream :) I compile/install/download/browse/etc./etc... while burning
with NO problems), but for some reason when I use GCombust or gtoaster (or
XCDRoast or ANY GUI that uses cdrecord), there is inevitably a problem,
where I can't start the burn process, I would say 9 times out of 10; but
this is not a problem with the drive from what I can see, because same
thing happened with a Sony I had when running SuSE in a different system.

HTH,

David Charles
