What Does This Mean?

[Mark76]

I get this same message every time I run cdrdao scanbus

Error trying to open /dev/sg5 exclusively (Permission denied)

What does it mean and how can I stop it?

Hi,

Try running the command with sudo:

$ sudo cdrdao scanbus

Damn.

cdrdao doesn't support my driver :(

Hi:

I suspect that it probably does. Just use the default driver in your commandline: --driver generic-mmc
