FYI, the 2.6.8 Kernel broke most of the CD-writing programs for
everyone except root. If you need to write CD's, you may consider
sticking with 2.6.7. (Yeah, in older hardware, this isn't a big
issue... just FYI.)
I saw some updates to cdrecord, mkisofs, and the like recently... so
they may be fixing it on the application side (rather than in the
kernel)... but my K3B still doesn't work with 2.6.8 (unless you run
as root -- which is not recommended).
