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.
