So do I once udev was convinced to make a /dev/sr0, it looks like this now:
[root at coyote linux-2.6.24-rc6]# 4L-cli enumerate
Using /etc/lightscribe.rc
Drive path: /dev/sr0
Usable: 1
Full name: LITE-ON DVDRW SHM-165H6S HS06 122
Model: DVDRW SHM-165H6S
Manufacturer: LITE-ON
Capabilities: monochrome

Drive outer radius: 58700

Me either, and I haven't done anything to udev, but did build another kernel
with much of the disk related stuffs built in, and now it works as expected.
And /dev/sr0 and /dev/scd0 have the same major,minor.
[root at coyote linux-2.6.24-rc6]# ls -l /dev/sr0 /dev/scd0
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 0 Jan 1 20:27 /dev/scd0
brwx------ 1 root root 11, 0 Jan 1 20:27 /dev/sr0
but different perms? Odd. Not softlinks & I just rebooted, I had a remote X
session freeze the system, even stopped the titlebar clock. I have GOT to
trace that down somehow. My shop box 150 feet away is also frozen I think, I
haven't tried to ssh into it since rebooting. So I'll have to go out in the
snow and reboot it too. Damn I hate that... Humm, no, it appears my
rebooting here must have killed the process out there. Might have left stale
locks though.

udev-095-17.fc6 here.
F8 will get put together here when I get a sata card with a fscking bios
enabled. First pass failed, we should blacklist the Masscool XWT-RC018 card
because of that. The linux drivers work just fine, but you can't boot from a
drive the bios cannot see.

Probably. Definite maybe at least. :)
