It sounds like the IDE direct access for use with the cd burner is what I am after here. the scsi emulation does not work very well, in my instance, anyway. Having a true device mount point, instead of emulation /dev/sg for burning and /dev/scd for reading , tthrough the emulation, seems to be corrupting the data that is written via the emulation. I hope 2.6 gets out soon. I hope the work in the 2.5 development level are making progress with the IDE mount point.
