[vox-tech] IDE cdrw/dvdrw

[Mark K. Kim]

Oh... so that's what you wanted =P  The new version of cdrecord supposedly
don't need ide-scsi work-around but can write directly to IDE.  I think
most people were trying to help you do it the "new" way and seth just
showed you the old way... =P

BTW, last time I checked Kernel 2.6.x didn't support ide-scsi.
