First the most commonly asked for info:
Linux timberwolf 2.4.18 #1 SMP Sun May 5 19:12:29 CDT 2002 i686 unknown

Relevant modules loaded: sr_mod sd_mod ide-scsi sg scsi_mod

First, is the warning relevant? I don't recall it being there, but I might
have been overlooking it for quite a while.
Second, the real problem is that for a long while now, I've not been able to
burn CDs. I can't give examples of the exact error at the moment (not at
home ATM), but sometimes (rarely) I can get it to do a dummy run. Most of
the time, it never starts "writing", but instead just gives ... checksum? ...
errors and fails out. Non-dummy runs work out the same, sometimes giving me
coasters, sometmes not...
Does anyone have any good starting points for tracking this issue down? I
can't go back to the 2.2 series kernels, as I'm using too many 2.4 features
that I just don't have the will to give up now.
