Problem with CD burning


Hello everyone.
To say straight, I've got problems with burning a CD. Probably they are not related to burning software as such, because every program gives me the same negative result. I provide some error output here.
Actually, when I tried to burn the CD under user, it was something like "Unable to open device" (wtf?) (I translate from a non-English interface) and "Unable to open SCSI driver" So I had to try root at the console.

Btw, Ubuntu 9.04 on a laptop (worked stable enough for not to want to update)

Code:
root@*******:/home/user# wodim music204.ogg 
wodim: No write mode specified.
wodim: Asuming -tao mode.
wodim: Future versions of wodim may have different drive dependent defaults.
Device was not specified. Trying to find an appropriate drive...
Looking for a CD-R drive to store 1.87 MiB...

wodim: A write error occured.
wodim: Please properly read the error message above.
Under user:
Code:
user@*******:~$ wodim -checkdrive
Device was not specified. Trying to find an appropriate drive...
Detected CD-R drive: /dev/cdrw
Using /dev/cdrom of unknown capabilities
wodim: No such file or directory. 
Cannot open SCSI driver!
Ps: sorry for maybe lame tone. Have little-to-no time to dive deep into the problem.
