 This means no ATAPI support for that kernel. If you want CD writing
 support you have to go the traditional scsi emulation way, but this
 will disturb the rest of the kernels you have.

I dont get it I am using the standard fedora kernels, why has this
suddenly go shitty for me?

...
 I am not familiar with the differences between the kernels but I
would
 assume that both have direct ATAPI support which means they have
 ide-cd module present.

 Do an lsmod for the kernel version that works and see what modules are
 loaded up.

lsmod shows sg & scsi_mod loaded but no ide-cd, and now with the
cdrecord.conf ammendments I can burn an iso as root using cdrecord
using kernel-2.6.8-1.521.

I still cannot use k3b it just hangs at "Scanning Devices...." and
shows as dead "D" in ps.

If i boot into kernel-2.6.7-1.494.2.2 the following even cdrecord -v
-scanbus dev=ATAPI hangs as root. lsmod shows sg & scsi_mod but no
ide-cd.

Asked another fc2 user in #fedora on freenode to check if they had
scsi_mod and sg which they did, so this might be heading in the wrong
direction.

Thanks
