Ok, I'm not sure where to go with this one so if anyone can point  me in the right direction for this i'd be thankfull.
   The problem is cdrecord will not see the the writer when -scanbus switch is used, but the drive does work as a CDrom.  After FreeBSD was installed, I used "make install" for the cdrtools-2.0.3_2 package (Previous to freeBSD 4.10 installed was Windows 2000.  No hardware has changed since I was able to burn CDs using EZ cd creator)  Here is some information:

The whole kernel config can be found here:  http://www.mnsi.net/~dts/kernel/kernel.txt


At this point i'm not sure why the system can find the Ricoh RW drive and cdrecord can't.  I don't know much about configuring the kernel for such a scsi device, and I don't know much about camcontrol.  But I do think these have something to do with why cdrecord doesn't see it.  Any information at all would help me greatly.
