Kernel 2.6 also does not need IDE SCSI emulation for writing CDs
anymore, so you normally use the IDE device files. However they belong
to the disk group, and you have to change the device file for your
cdrom to group cdrom. And don't forget that you need a cable from your
CD-ROM drive to the sound card, or you need to use the cdread plugin.
