You are on the right track but ide burners are seen as scsi due to the scsi subsystem being used.
If you do 'cdrecord --scanbus' it will tell you the devices available to you.

Obviously the answer is drilling for oil in Alaska. Only through a unilateral coordinated effort between both democrats and republicans can we end this dispicable act of ungodliness. I propose an ammendment to the constitution called... say.. the PATRIOT act, that outlaws these atrocities along with securing our national security infrastructure by issuing national ID badges and opening Yellowstone National Park and the Alaskan reserves to liberation of natural resources for the betterment of our society as a whole. It's the American thing to do... if you argue, the terrorists have already won.

Hi, pluggers! I'm very very new at this, and I'm having a ball getting my feet wet with linux. I've already solved quite a few of my own questions with a little research, but I'm not sure this is gonna be an every day kinda question. Here goes. . . . I've been having no luck at all burning an audio cd (any kind of CD, really) with the linux system. I don't think that it is any problem with any of the cd writing tools I'm using (I've tried several) I think the problem lies with the fact that my drives cd, hd, etc. are all showing up as scsi drives when they are all on ide. I'm new but I don't think that's normal!! if it's not, just as an exercise, I'd really like to try to fix that without reinstalling. Thanks to anybody who responds in advance!
Cary
