Does cdrdao work as normal user? (Response)

[Bob Agel]

Looks like it works in FC6-T2 - here's the response:

[bob at localhost ~]$ eject -t ; cdrdao blank --device /dev/cdrom
--simulate
Cdrdao version 1.2.1 - (C) Andreas Mueller <andreas at daneb.de>
  SCSI interface library - (C) Joerg Schilling
  Paranoia DAE library - (C) Monty

Check http://cdrdao.sourceforge.net/drives.html#dt for current driver
tables.

Using libscg version 'schily-0.8'

/dev/cdrom: LITE-ON CD-RW SOHR-5239V    Rev: 2$09
Using driver: Generic SCSI-3/MMC - Version 2.0 (options 0x0000)

Blanking disk...
ERROR: Cannot erase CD-RW.
ERROR: Blanking failed.
