Hi, either your cdrecord binary is not properly installed suid root, or you are suffering from the fact that Debian distributes bastardized (and broken) variants of cdrecord.
Proof by: cdrecord: Permission denied. WARNING: Cannot set priority using setpriority(). This is a verification for not being root. If you like to make sure that a suid root cdrecord is able to work properly on Linux-2.6.8.1 or newer, you should use a self-compiled original source: ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha/ A cdrecord from the original source includes a proper workaround for the incompatible interface changes from Linux-2.6.8.1. Note that the official cdrecord version contains the official DVD writing support and not the broken code offered by Debian and others.
