XCDroast - Cannot allocate memory. Cannot get SCSI I/O buffer.


Code:
cdrecord: Cannot allocate memory. Cannot get SCSI I/O buffer.
This is the error when I run Xcdroast -n as user and try to burn a cd or dvd. I have to use the -n to override the cdrecord dvd pacakge becuase its complaing its not new enough when it actually is. As root running xcdroast -n I do not get any errors and Im able to burn the cd just fine.
Code:
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root          3 Oct 27 21:39 cdrom -> hda
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root          3 Oct 27 21:39 cdrw -> hda
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root          3 Oct 27 21:39 dvd -> hda
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root          3 Oct 27 21:39 dvdrw -> hda
brw-rw----   1 root cdrom    3,   0 Oct 27 21:39 hda
/dev/hda is my cd/dvd burner. User is part of the cdrom group. I even tried 666 on it but still got the same error. Any Ideas ??

System:
Code:
Linux Gentoo 2.6.13-gentoo-r3 #3 SMP Thu Oct 13 20:15:14 GMT 2005 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
Code:
XCDRoast - 0.98_alpha15-r3, cdrecord-prodvd - 2.01.01-r1, cdrtools - 2.01-r3
