ide cdrom sg like access / rpcmgr ?

Hi,

Is there some documentation on how to access an ide cdrom in 2.6.0*
for converting an app that used ide-scsi and sg devices?
(I'd like to use rpcmgr11.c to unlock my dvd drive. maybe someone
already ported it to kernel 2.6.*?)

the original source uses:
fd = open(..., O_RDWR);
write, read and ioctl(fd, SG_NEXT_CMD_LEN, &cmdlen);
(but the ioctl only on lg drives, mine is a hitachi,
so that shouldn't be necessary).

or will I need ide-scsi to do these things?

Thanks, Andreas
