Might I be so bold as to ask "what mess?". I have been using Linux for some years, Gentoo only for about 9 months, and bought my first CD/DVD burner at Christmas. I just installed it (placed into drive bay, connected up IDE and power cables), emerged k3b (which pulled in lots of dependencies) and it 'just worked'. I did not have to 'tweak' any settings (OK, I did read the USE flag descriptions and set the ones which looked appropriate before emerging k3b) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
