Running 2.6.8 here and k3b fires up cdrecord as follows:

cdrecord dev=/dev/hdd ....

Also, the dev and speed options don't have a leading '-'  I don't know 
if that makes a difference as I've not tried it, but I know the 
following works:

cdrecord dev=/dev/hdd speed=12

And the man page reflects these are the proper options for cdrecord.
