Hi,
I've been using the original cdrecord (cdrtools) for more than 10
years now, however I hadn't burned anything in the last 3 months (or
even more). With the current linux kernel image from Arch:
% uname -a
Linux jvasquez14 3.3.8-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jun 5 15:20:32 CEST
2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I can't get cdrecord to recognize any cd/dvd writer, not the laptop
one neither an external USB one... I might be mistaken, but with 3.0
image I believe things worked (can't be sure, as I said I haven't been
burning anything for months).
When I try to identify the cd/dvd writers:
% cdrecord -scanbus
Cdrecord-ProDVD-ProBD-Clone 3.01a07 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)

cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open '/dev/pg*'. Cannot
open or use SCSI driver.
cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'.
cdrecord: For possible transport specifiers try 'cdrecord dev=help'.
Looks like a missconfigured kernel that does not include support for or
for some strange reason does not load the SCSI generic driver

cdrtools aka wodim work fine.
