When I start Xfburn I get a message:
No burners are currently available
Possibly the disc(s) are in use, and cannot get accessed.
How to check which program is using the DVD drive?
"ps fax" is not showing that any program is using it.

Hi Joseph,
Suppose /dev/dvd is the device in question do a
fuser /dev/dvd
to see, what is using the device.
Another source for that kind of error messages are
wrong permissions of the device, you (or better your
account) is missing a certain group membership (group
"cdrom", "cdrw" for example) or Xfburn exspects
/dev/dvd (or something else) and udev has generated
a more cryptic device name like /dev/sr0.
I've tried to burn a dvd from a command line:
cdrecord -v -eject -dao speed=4 dev=0,0,0 dvd.iso
but I got a generic error message that it is not possible.
running:
fuser /dev/sr0
come up with empty line, but Xfburn now can access the drive :-/
