    Hi all,

    The solution to this problem appears to be downloading the latest version of
    cdrecord from Jorg Schilling's website (1.10alpha7), which i installed as
    /opt/schily (using the default).

    The v1.9, as shipped with RH7.0, appears to be the problem.

    I now see:

    [root@opus bin]# /opt/schily/bin/cdrecord -scanbus
    Cdrecord 1.10a07 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2000 Jrg Schilling
    Using libscg version 'schily-0.4'

    Thanks to Tim Waugh for his input.
