[PLUG] kernel 2.6 and cdrecord


I upgraded to kernel 2.6 (debian sarge, kernel 2.6.8-2) and cdrecord
now warns me of all manner of problems.

I did the things suggested in
/usr/share/doc/cdrecord/README.ATAPI.setup but cdrecord still isn't
happy.  Trying to burn a cdrom, I get the following:

    cdrecord: Warning: Running on Linux-2.6.8-2-686
    cdrecord: There are unsettled issues with Linux-2.5 and newer.
    cdrecord: If you have unexpected problems, please try Linux-2.4 or Solaris.
    cdrecord: Warning: Linux-2.6.8 introduced incompatible interface changes.
    cdrecord: Warning: SCSI transport does no longer work for suid root programs.
    cdrecord: Warning: if cdrecord fails, try to run it from a root account.
    TOC Type: 1 = CD-ROM
    scsidev: 'ATA:1,5,0'
    devname: 'ATA'
    scsibus: 1 target: 5 lun: 0
    Warning: Using badly designed ATAPI via /dev/hd* interface.
    cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open '/dev/hd*'. Cannot open SCSI driver.
    cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'.
    cdrecord: For possible transport specifiers try 'cdrecord dev=help'.
    cdrecord: 
    cdrecord: For more information, install the cdrtools-doc
    cdrecord: package and read /usr/share/doc/cdrecord/README.ATAPI.setup .

Any suggestions?  I haven't found much relevant on google except that
others have similar problems...


Some further information, in case it suggests something:

I try scanning the bus for devices:
