cdrecord does not work as ordinary user in kernel 2.6.8-1-686
Hi,
I just recently mustered up some courage and started using Kernel 2.6,
2.6.8-1-686 to be more exact.
Since then I am having a few problems. Most can be lived with but
cdrcord is not allowing non-root users to blank a CDRW disc.
The messages I get are given below. I have the CD write at /dev/hdd and
a CDROM as /dev/hdc:
> ls -l /dev/hd[cd]
brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 22, 0 Mar 23 16:48 /dev/hdc
brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 22, 64 Mar 23 16:48 /dev/hdd
The blanking works only if I try as a root. I can though mount and read
CD's okay in both the readers as a normal user.
And I am a member of the cdrom group. This writing worked okay under
2.4.26. Has anybody else had this problem?
All help is appreciated,
Thanks.
