This is true, it has set stricter permissions for devices, thus the
average user cannot burn a cd.
I'm running the lastest Ubuntu kernel and it seems to include a fix to
allow this to work, previously I used to run 2.6.7 on Sid.
Also to allow the user to actually create cd's.
Just setuid cdrecord* cdrdao:
chmod +s /usr/bin/cdrecord*
chmod +x /usr/bin/cdrdao
At least I think it's /usr/bin, it may be just /bin.
