OK, my CD Writer works perfectly, can be seen by all applications that need to 
and can access every type of disk I have apart from these disks which appear 
to be multi session.

Does anyone know if there's a change I need to make to my fstab file to allow 
me to use multi session disks. By multi session I mean disks with CD Audio 
and Data tracks on them. Maybe I'm using the wrong terminology, but that's 
what I mean anyway.

Any clues?

I'm using SuSE 8.0
