Thanks for your reply :-) I believe that my cdrecord has the same permissions and everything works fine like this:

jose@sweety:~$ ll `which cdrecord`
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root cdrom 133 2006-01-07 13:43 /usr/bin/cdrecord*

My problem is that I'd like cdrecord not to have the SUID set (the 's' in '-rwsr-xr--' above). I'm not sure this is possible, but if it is and

Very odd, on both of you.

(0) heretic /home/keeling_ all `which cdrecord`
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 133 2005-01-09 09:55 /usr/bin/cdrecord*

No SUID needed.

(0) heretic /home/keeling_ id
uid=1000(keeling) gid=1000(keeling)
groups=20(dialout),24(cdrom),25(floppy),29(audio),44(video),46(plugdev),50(staff),1000(keeling)

I'm running Sarge/stable, Kernel 2.6.8-3-686.  I've no problem burning
CDs as user keeling:

(0) heretic /home/keeling_ cdrecord dev=/dev/hdd -eject -tao \
      -data xubuntu-6.06-desktop-i386.iso

Works fine (cdrecord, I mean; not xubuntu :-P ).
I'm not sure, but I believe it has to do with the kernel versions as Mumia posted. You're running 2.6.8-3, but I'm running 2.6.16-2 on an etch (testing) system. Oh well, I guess I'll probably end up using sudo (it does seem like a good solution!).
