Yes! In GnomeToaster there is a possibility to configure the recorder. The default
entry is: Device file = /dev/scd0 and Scsi ID = 0,0. On my system this Scsi ID 
wants to use /dev/pg0.

Thanx! That's it. I don't know the real ID for sg0 (cdrdao --device bus,id,lun).
But i tried to use the entry /dev/sg0 for Scsi ID. And now it works.
