cdrecord does not work with parallel port HP 7100 cd writer. After loading paride, epat, pg, cdrecord -scanbus finds writer but any attempt to access it (-prcap, or recording) fails with a message: inapropriate ioctl for device: Cannot send SCSI cmd via ioctl Kernel is 2.2.16 smp on 2-processor PII with SCSI contoler (aix7xxx) and disk. I recompiled cdrecord SRPM (first, I had to put 2.2.16 include files, since RH by default installs 2.4.0 include files), and then it started working.
I have the same problem with using a Microsolutions Backpack cd-rewriter running kernel 2.2.16-22 and using the backpack kernel module http://www.micro-solutions.com/software_library/linux/index.html it's just a specialized paride driver. load the pg module and I run cdrecord -scanbus i get the ioctl error, i compiled the source myself and that works fine.

Which version did you compile the source for? 1.9?
