CD-R help - a possible clue?

Lucas;
The message you're getting is one I got before I got the modules I
mentioned loaded. You check with "cat /proc/modules". The modules
should be located in /lib/modules/(current kernel)/scsi/
Have you tried "insmod scsi_mod","insmod ide-scsi",etc to
install the modules ? After they are installed you should get
a positive response to "cdrecord -scanbus"
