Lonnie,
        In my limited experience xcdroast and k3b are frontends to 
cdrecord and they burn iso's and music files  only,data files need to be
formated with mkisofs to be burnt.As such there is no setting to burn 
iso's it's automatic.
Does the ide burner show in /etc/sysconfig/hwconf, if not it could mean 
the BIOS isn't detecting it,if it is in hwconf maybe delete it and run 
kudzu to redetect and try cdrecord -scanbus again.
