Sorry I have created a new thread with the same heading and attached a (Response) to it. I accidently deleted the original poster's message, which was
from https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2006-September/msg00108.htm... ========== I posted this question last week with no reply. Could someone check whether cdrdao in FC6t2 works as a normal user? For example, try a fake blank operation by putting a CD-RW in the drive and running
eject -t ; cdrdao blank --device /dev/cdrom --simulate
as a normal user. In FC5 this gives the error message
cdrdao: Operation not permitted. Cannot send SCSI cmd via ioctl
as mentioned in

Looks like it works in FC6-T2 - here's the response:

Thank you for both replies. I'm guessing that the failure to blank in the second reply was due to the disc being mounted during the write attempt. Like cdrecord, cdrdao requires the disc to be unmounted when it tries to write. Unlike cdrecord, it doesn't close the drive door automatically, which is what the "eject -t" is for (the idea is to make sure the write command runs immediately after the door closes, before the automount happens).
