Something obviously has changed with the system as a whole.
Main suspect, of course, is the newly installed OS and its
cdrecord binary. But i understand that Volker tried your DVD
enabled binary and still experiences the problem.
So the next step would be to compile a recent source version
of cdrtools and try wether this helps. If so : fine.
If a recent version of cdrecord does not work for him, i
advise him to make sure that the version which he used with his
old system fails on his new system, too. (the 1.6 proposal was
rather a joke ... but it would match the hardware's age)
If the failure persists - as you predict - then one could probably
ask for background information about the warnings which he reported
at the end of his original message.
That was the idea behind my above advice.
Have a nice day :)
