Can't burn CDs from Nautilus.

[Neil Woolford]

I've just tried for the first time to burn a CD on my Ubuntu system.

I can select files and open up the CD burner in Nautilus, but I can only 
write to a file image;  there is no physical drive available in the
dropdown on the 'Write to disc' panel.

The drive used to write CDs in the system I took it out of, so I'm 
confident it *is* a writer :)

I did think I'd found the problem when I looked in /etc/fstab and found the 
CD drive was set up as ro, but changing this to rw didn't help,
even after a reboot.

So, in a nutshell;  I have a CD writer fitted to my system, but the system 
thinks it is only a player.  How do I change this?

PS  The drive *reads* data and audio CDs without any problems...
