Bug#323155: Please enable "atapicam"
Package: kfreebsd-5
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Hi!
Please could you enable the atapicam device in the generic build? It is
necessary to burn CDs using ATAPI cd-writers.
It is strange that upstream didn't enable it by default, but I've tested it
(burned CDs with it, etc) and haven't seen any odd effects.
