Actually, I'm running 2.6.7. The device is listed in /proc/scsi/scsi. It
works when I boot the system cleanly. It only disappears after I have
burned one CD. The first CD that I burn comes out fine, but after the
fixating process, the driver goes wonky. 

I had originally compiled everything in as a module, and after the first
CD was burned, the sr_mod module would be stuck in an UNLOADING state,
and it couldn't be inserted or removed. Now, with everything compiled
into the kernel, it appears as if the problem, while still existing, is
a bit different. Oh, and I am doing this as root, so the workaround
doesn't always work :-)

Thanks,
Kenny
