11 This error is bothering me. It happens even when ran as root, yet I

16 I need to suid root a program that fails when ran as root?!?!?

21 I had permission denied on /dev/sg0 too, so dev= is sort of irrelevant.

23 Also, I had the same error during cdrecord -scanbus, even though I am

25
26 Also, the same error happened when it was run *as root*. And not sudo, but su.
