Description of problem:
cdrecord fails often. It seems like I have to boot into non-gdm
mode in order for cdrecord to work (su -; telinit 3; login; write
CDs - FC3 has 4 of them!; telinit 5). After that, cdrecord cannot
find the driver any more. 

And, cdrecord is not listed as one of the component in Buzilla. 

[ this is not a bug, but I hate the fact that Xcdroast opens when
  I used cdrecord on the command line; can't cdrecord be installed
  on its own? ]

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cdrecord-2.01.1-0.FC2.1


How reproducible:
Very.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start xterm
2. cdrecord -v filename
3.
  
Actual results:
cdrecord: No such device or address. Cannot send SCSI cmd via ioctl
repeated over and over then segmentation fault. 

Expected results:
Had always worked before!
