I've been having some problems getting cdrecord to work on my thinkpad.

http://www.mathematik.uni-marburg.de/~schmidtm/ibm/index.php says:
"To burn CDs with cdrecord don't forget to enable atapicam during
kernel configuration."

In his kernel config, he used this with "device atapicd", so I ran:
[amon-re /root] cat /sys/i386/conf/GENERIC | grep atapicd
device          atapicd         # ATAPI CDROM drives

In the past (on Linux), I had always used 'cdrecord dev=3D/dev/cdrom',
so I initially tried 'cdrecord dev=3D/dev/acd0', but I learned from
'cdrecord dev=3Dhelp' that apparently "open via UNIX device" is not
supported.  "SCSI Bus scanning" is supposed to be supported, but when
I run 'cdrecord -scanbus', it gives:
[amon-re /root] cdrecord -scanbus
Cdrecord-Clone 2.01 (i386-unknown-freebsd6.1) Copyright (C) 1995-2004
J=F6rg Schilling
cdrecord: Error 0. Cannot open SCSI driver.
cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'.
cdrecord: For possible transport specifiers try 'cdrecord dev=3Dhelp'.

(it would be nice if cdrecord -scanbus didn't tell me to run it
again... but that's a different issue)

Here is some (hopefully) relevant information about my system:

[amon-re /root] uname -a

I'd appreciate any help that anyone can provide.  I'm somewhat
stumped, and I'm not seeing much on google regarding this problem.

Thanks!
