hey David, the solution to your problem is to go to cdrecord's website and 
download the newest version of cdrecord. Lets say you download it to your 
Downloads folder. Unzip it, and in the terminal type (without quotes) "cd 
/home/david(you're user name I'm assuming)/Downloads/(the name of the cdr-tools 
folder, ex. cdrtools-2.01a)
then type "sudo make", hit enter, it'll ask for your password, type it and hit 
enter. Then type "sudo make install". 
Now type these commands, enter after each line. This will move out of the way 
the useless wodim files previously on your computer, you can copy and paste 
these lines to your terminal.
sudo mkdir /opt/schily/replacedfiles
sudo mv /usr/bin/cdrecord /opt/schily/replacedfiles
sudo mv /usr/bin/genisoimage /opt/schily/replacedfiles
sudo mv /usr/bin/mkisofs /opt/schily/replacedfiles
sudo mv /usr/bin/readom /opt/schily/replacedfiles
sudo mv /usr/bin/wodim /opt/schily/replacedfiles
next you'll link your new files to where k3b will look, hit enter after each 
line, you can copy and paste
sudo ln -s /opt/schily/bin/cdrecord /usr/bin/cdrecord
sudo ln -s /opt/schily/bin/mkisofs /usr/bin/genisoimage
sudo ln -s /opt/schily/bin/mkisofs /usr/bin/mkisofs
sudo ln -s /opt/schily/bin/readcd /usr/bin/readom
sudo ln -s /opt/schily/bin/cdrecord /usr/bin/wodim
sudo ln -s /opt/schily/bin/readcd /usr/bin/readcd
sudo ln -s /opt/schily/bin/mkhybrid /usr/bin/mkhybrid
sudo ln -s /opt/schily/bin/cdda2wav /usr/bin/cdda2wav
now install k3b and write in RAW mode. You'll be able to write cds now. The 
whole reason you had this problem was because Ubuntu does not come with an 
original version of cdrecord, but an inferior modified version. Please Ubuntu, 
in 10.04 please please please use the full original version of cdrecord.
