OK, that's a different story. Why are you complaining about missing
ide-scsi then?
Because ide-scsi is missing, and now cdrecord doesn't work. If you
know something I don't about why cdrecord stopped working due to the
kernel change, please share. Better yet, if you know how to fix the
problem, please share.
Repeat after me until you try it, my burner has been /dev/hdc, where it
belongs now for over a year. dma just works with it while burning,
k3b, old version from kde-3.3.0 just works.
Make that the chorus of the song/whine you are writing.
According to a very lengthy thread containing lots of gored ox sounds on
the kernel mailing list, ide-scsi was busted in lots of subtle ways,
and it was easier to actually address the issues of making the ide
stuff work with cdroms etc than it was to fix the warts and long term
bitrot in ide-scsi.
As for cdrecord --scanbus, use the dev=/dev/hdc (or whatever it is on
the ide buss cable) option and it should find your drive just fine. If
you have a recent version of cdrecord that is, that may need an update,
one that Schilling won't do, so get it from your distribution as that
version is probably patched to just work.

Re-Interpreting Historic Miracles with SED #141: %s/water/wine/g
had a long time ago such a problem. it was not - of course in my case -
ide-scsi. i mounted somehow the usb-device (as /dev/scda or something
like that) and the trouble was over. did you - by the way - install
pmount or hal? could make things easier
