okay, did that.  Changed permissions and ownership of both of my CD
drives. One is an ATAPI device (/dev/hdc) and the other is a USB 
CD reader (/dev/scd0). No help. xcdroast still hangs and when I close
the window, the program does not die.  I have to track down its PID
and send a [kill -9] to kill it. And seeing as how it is newly installed,
the program requires that it be started by root. I start it from the
command line and I then can not get control of that shell again until
I have issued the kill command from a second shell.

I am willing to bring this machine to the next ALE Central meeting and
plug it in to the projector if anyone thinks he/she can fix this.
I _really_ do not want to downgrade the kernel as I fear that would cause
other problems.  Might make a good 15 minute switchboard presentation.
