DVD Drive permissions


I'm trying to a burn dvd, but I kep getting erros that I don't have the right type of medium in. But when it brings up my device name it has O_RDONLY at the ned of the name. I'm guessing that stands for read-only. I've tried everthing I know to fix the problem. I've taken ro out of the /etc/fstab. I have scsi emulation running. I turned off supermount, but now when I try to mount it I get permission denied. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

I'm using mandrake 10 and kernel 2.6.2. Thanks for any help.

What DVD Burning software are you using, I use K3B from KDE 3.2 and run it as super user to get access to my dvd drive. I also replace ide-scsi with ide-cd for the new kernel.
