    I know. Because you shouldn't have bought a card with binary only drivers
    in the first place.

    Doing that results in you having the problems that you're having now, with
    problems on each upgrade that you try.

    OTOH, try to disable the suid bit on cdrecord (dpkg-reconfigure -plow
    cdrecord) and see if helps with the kernel that you have.

    Hope this helps, Rogério.
