Yes...

permissions of /usr/local/bin/cdrecord are now
-rwsrws--- root xcdwrite 265232 Apr 29 22:50 /usr/local/bin/cdrecord

Same problem.

Changed perms to 
-rwsrwx--- root xcdwrite 265232 Apr 29 22:50 /usr/local/bin/cdrecord

Same problem.

Changed perms to 
-rwsrwsrwx root xcdwrite 265232 Apr 29 22:50 /usr/local/bin/cdrecord

Same problem.


How is it that one does a ""neener neener neener" dance"?
Is there something on the SxS site?

At this point, I don't care anymore. I can get xcdroast to work as non-root, I'll just use that. 

Thanks, anyway...
