It's kernel-dependent, is it not? I mean, maybe you can do this in
2.6.8 (sarge defautl kernel) but not in later ones. As the other
poster said, it has to do supposedly with priviieged IOCTLs and
kernel-level things. 

I'm running etch (kernel 2.6.15.1-k7 actually). People running 2.4.x
may not have to have this requirement of cdrecord to be run suid root
either.
