I use "wodim" ( which is actually a symlink from "cdrecord", so either
will work. This is on 7.04)

For example, with a CD-RW:

wodim -v -blank=fast -dev=/dev/cdrom foo.iso

Seems to work fine. Of course, you don't need the "-blank" for a CD-R
The -v is "verbose" - I recommend that you use it, as it tells you what is
happening :) You can also add -eject if you want the recorded CD to eject
automatically on completion.

Lots of other options in

man wodim
