I've got xcdroast, but when I boot it up it tells me that it failed to scan scsibus and I might not have scsi support, or have the correct permissions... I'm doing this in root so I have to have permissions...

When I go to /usr/src/linux and do make menuconfig under the scsi support I have that as yes and have scsi cd-rom support compiled in salso... I've also enabled SCSI generic support.... are there any additional steps I need to do?

Oh if I type cdrecord -scanbus I get this for a msg...

Code:
Cdrecord 1.11a39 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2002 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'.

If you've compiled the necessary support as modules then make sure they've been loaded (use modprobe or modules.autoload). You'll need to instruct your kernel to enable SCSI emulation for your particular IDE CD-R device - it's not enough just to enable SCSI emulation in the kernel. There is an alternate method of ensuring SCSI emulation is enabled for your device which may or may not work. For a discussion of all the above, have a look at https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=20175. I believe a CD-R HOWTO is also available at http://www.tldp.org/.

Once you have gotten things working, you will find that Xcdroast will allow you to enable recording abilities for non-root/wheel users. Even without Xcdroast, devfs should allow a normal user account to burn CDs, provided that the account is a member of the "cdrw" group.

this is in my devfsd.conf:

Code:

# Give the cdrw group write permissions to /dev/sg0
# This is done to have non root user use the burner (scan the scsi bus)
REGISTER        ^sg0$       PERMISSIONS root.cdrw 660


yet as a regular user whom ive added to the cdrw group, i still have no permssions to the cdrw device.
an ls -al /dev/sg0 or sr0 shows

Code:

 ls -al /dev/sg0
lr-xr-xr-x    1 root     root           36 Dec  4 16:53 /dev/sg0 -> scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/generic


why are the group permisions not set?

You may need to add "hdx=ide-scsi" to your kernel parameter line in grub.conf or lilo.

All right I've got it going for the most part... I erased a CD-RW using cdrecord.... now I'm trying to burn a cd in xcdroast.

I tried to burn a test .wav file, and got this error.

Code:

Calling: /usr/lib/xcdroast-0.98/bin/xcdrwrap CDRECORD dev= "0,0,0" fs=4096k  -v -useinfo speed=4 -dao -eject -pad -audio "/tmp/eminem.wav" ...

scsidev: '0,0,0'
scsibus: 0 target: 0 lun: 0
Linux sg driver version: 3.1.24
pregap1: -1
cdrecord: Drive does not support SAO recording.
Cdrecord 1.11a39 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2002 Jörg Schilling
cdrecord: Try -raw option.
TOC Type: 0 = CD-DA
cdrecord: Illegal write mode for this drive.
Using libscg version 'schily-0.7'


What do I need to do to get this working?

try enabling disk at once mode.. if xcdroast doesn't work try another program. I use Arson and haven't had any problems once I got scsi-emulation working.
