ok so iv figured its a permission error because it allows me to burn if i launch gnome baker as root, just to note, the gnoem built in cd burner fails too. So am I right in assuming I need to add my user account to allow me to access cdrecord?

How would I go about adding my self as a member of cdrecord? I have looked around but i seem to find conflicting things.

Thanks again

there's a gui in debian based distros and most others too for managing user-n-group things..i'll suggest u to look for "users-admin" and add urself as a member of whatever group it(gnBake) wanted U to be .otherwise U can manually add urself to cdrecord as a secondary group using "useradd -G "..more read "man useradd" or "man adduser".so Best of Lux Friend

ok so iv figgured that to add my self to cdreord i need to issue as root adduser username cdrecord

but it returns back to me that cdrecord does not exist. Now im guessing that i would need to create this group, but isnt it already created or does root have access to cdrecord even thought the cdrecord group does not exist?

I have sorted it. I issued the following command as root and now I can burn as a user.

chmod +s /usr/bin/cdrecord.mmap
