[ale] another CD-RW question

[Keith Morris]

I'm a serious linux newbie running Mandrake 6.0 and was wondering if there 
is any way to use an ATAPI/IDE CD-RW (HP 1080i) within linux or if you are 
limited to scsi writers.  also, I am only showing that my CD reader is 
available from within linux do I have to add a line in some config file for 
it to be available?

sorry for the ignorance.
