I knew I should have saved this question for later. :-)

I was gonna try to research it first before asking here.

Oh well, I guess now is as good a time as any...

I'm running:

kernel-2.6.9-1.678_FC3
cdrecord-2.01.1-5
k3b-0.11.17-0.1.3.kde
nautilus-cd-burner-2.8.3-6


The problem isn't K3b or Nautilus, it's either cdrecord, the Kernel 
and/or some configuration I managed to mess up. :-)

It worked fine a week ago.... I burned CDs both from Nautilus and with K3b.

Also here is what happens when I try to use cdrecord by itself (this is 
how I know k3b isn't the problem).
