I needed to write an iso image to a DVD-R. I run brasero and

I'm running a full gnome session with the 10,487 gnome daemons
in the background? (I'm running a custom fvwm session, not gnome).

Brasero is not well maintained but it's still strange it didn't see your drive at all. In either case, I moved on to xfburn for general use and use the command line (xorriso) for dual layer DB burning.

Richard,

Side comment:  I recently had to burn a small ISO to a CD-R in F32 with the MATE desktop. K3B simply didn't work, but rusty trusty Brasero got the job done with no muss or fuss.
