xcdroast was working. I then installed dvdrtools as well as someother stuff for +R+RW drives and xcdroast stopped working.

I'm about to take dvdrtools off from portage. It does not seem to be supported any more on and there are no files to download on savannah (maybe it's an issue by the savannah attack in Dec 03). You should emerge cdrtools with dvdr-USE-flag set. This will apply the dvd-patches from mandrake. Furthermore xcdroast with the dvdr-USE-flag set will install cdrecord-prodvd that can also handle dvd-writing.
Cool. Makes sense. Thanks! BTW - I only get prodvd with ~x86, but that's cool.

That you have to use ~x86 at the moment is true. I changed the behaviour of installing cdrecord-prodvd some days ago and wanted to test, if everything works fine. The current stable xcdroast installs cdrecord-prodvd within the ebuild. As cdrecord-prodvd could also be used without xcdroast I added it as an ebuild by it's own. I'll move it to stable in a few days (when bugs calm down ;-) ).
Thanks. I'm trying to use prodvd right now. (First time I've burned a DVD) Much to learn. Again, thanks for the help and the feedback.
