[lug] CD writer and player ?

Greetings,
I finally set up my new cdwriter so I can use it with xcdroast. I discovered
that this breaks several other programs that read the CD. What it seems to
amount to is that the /dev/cdrom is no longer accurate. originally it refered
to /dev/hdb. If I boot without scsi emulation and ide-scsi loaded, this still
works, but I can't burn CDs.

I wonder if it's possible to have it all ? both a cdwriter and a regular
cdrom/music type functionality from one CDR drive at the same time. Has anyone
succeeded in doing this?

Chuck
