I've gotten it to burn when running via sudo, but I certainly don't want
to continue doing that. When running as a user, it just won't detect any
writers.

I set cdrecord and cdrdao suid manually, rather than fuss with making
k3bsetup work.

Rhythmbox or other Gnome-style audio burning support can't come fast
enough for me.
