PROBLEM: cdrecord as normal user broken with kernel 2.6.8.1

[GhePeU]

As in Object: this has been reported by many user I know, with different
chipsets and different IDE cd-burners. Bug wasn't in 2.6.8 rc4.

cdrecord output with kernel 2.6.7 and kernel 2.6.8.1 as root:

Please note that no supported modes are found. There are many other
errors reported with cdrecord -atip or when trying a c2 errors scan with
readcd:

The same happens with CyberDrv CW088D CD-R/RW and PLEXTOR CD-R W4012A,
between the others.
