[Bug 503186] [NEW] Cannot open SCSI driver!

[Tudor Holton]

Public bug reported:

wodim and icedax complain "Cannot open SCSI driver!" when scanning for
devices even though nautilus detects and reads the CDs perfectly.

Below is a transcript of what I tried:

tudor at kneet:~$ wodim -scanbus
wodim: No such file or directory. 
Cannot open SCSI driver!
For possible targets try 'wodim --devices' or 'wodim -scanbus'.
For possible transport specifiers try 'wodim dev=help'.
For IDE/ATAPI devices configuration, see the file README.ATAPI.setup from
the wodim documentation.

tudor at kneet:~$ sudo wodim --devices
wodim: No such file or directory. 
Cannot open SCSI driver!
For possible targets try 'wodim --devices' or 'wodim -scanbus'.
For possible transport specifiers try 'wodim dev=help'.
For IDE/ATAPI devices configuration, see the file README.ATAPI.setup from
the wodim documentation.

tudor at kneet:~$ sudo adduser tudor cdrom

tudor at kneet:~$ sudo icedax --devices
icedax: No such file or directory. Cannot open '-1'. Cannot open SCSI driver.
icedax: For possible targets try 'wodim -scanbus'.
Use the script scan_scsi.linux to find out more.
Probably you did not define your SCSI device.
Set the CDDA_DEVICE environment variable or use the -D option.
You can also define the default device in the Makefile.
For possible transport specifiers try 'wodim dev=help'.
