    Hi,

    Got the same problem. When recompiling my 2.6 for the first time, i
    switched off SCSI emulation as it's said not to be needed any more.

    But xcdroast still _does_ need SCSI emulation. If you take a look on
    their site, you'll see :

    "I had several reports that the last 2.6.x kernel broke CD-Writing
    using the ATAPI driver. Don't update if you want to continue to use
    X-CD-Roast, or switch back to SCSI-emulation."

    So there's no other solution ! You still use scsi emulation, even with
    2.6, or yuou take smthg else to burn your CD.

    By the way, i post another question... What's the best way to burn
    CD's under Linux ? xcdroast used to be a must, but doesn't seem to be
    well maintained any more, does it ? Maybe it's still a must anyway ?

    Another way to burn is to do this manually, on console line. Not the
    easiest way, but a reliable one !
    You can take a look at CD-Burning howto, it's not so difficult !

    Good luck !
