Marcello, Have you looked at the CD-Writing-HOWTO - may well be on your system. It contains a useful rundown of the modules/kernel includes you need for each kind of device, in the section headed "Compiling missing kernel modules (optional)". More than you might think!
With those in place it should be possible to run Xcdroast as root. Then take a peek inside /usr/share/doc/xcdroast where you'll find a neat document excplaining how to run it as non-root. README.nonroot.gz Set this up yesterday on Debian woody, kernel 2.4.18-k7, works like a dream. hth Glyn -- Debian Home http://www.debian.org Debian Planet http://www.debianplanet.org/ For the children http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-jr/ In a hurry??? http://qref.sourceforge.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
