USB CD/DVD Burner

[Casimiro de Almeida Barreto]

Welcome to the club...

I posted an error (http://www.bugzilla.redhat.com) just about that. I 
have an IOMEGA USB cd burner. To the moment, the only way of have it 
working was to download a 2.6.6 kernel from http://www.kernel.org...

Onle of the problems is that the sg driver is not working properly (and 
cdrecord and other applications rely on this driver). Until someone 
shows up with a working /dev/sg or a suitable replacement, things will 
be harsh for us, poor USB CD writer owners.

Regards,

Casimiro
