Can't use my CDRW

Well, it's simple - I can't burn CDs, either from nautilus or graveman.
Running graveman -s gives:

umount: /dev/hdc is not mounted (according to mtab)
umount: /dev/hdb is not mounted (according to mtab)

However, it does list the DVD drive on hdb as a detected device, but not the CDRW on hdc.
My fstab:

none                   /dev/pts      devpts    defaults            0      0
none                   /dev/shm      tmpfs     defaults            0      0

/dev/fd0 /media/floppy     vfat    user,,noauto,unhide        0 0
/dev/hdc /media/cdrecorder auto    rw,user,noauto,exec,unhide 0 0
/dev/hdb /media/dvd        auto    ro,user,noauto,exec,unhide 0 0

/dev/hda5 swap  swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hda6 /     ext3 defaults 0 1
/dev/hda2 /boot ext2 defaults 0 1
/dev/hda7 /home ext3 defaults 0 1

I have tried various options here, even commenting both hdb/c lines (mounting/ejecting still worked in gnome because of the g-v-m).
Here's what cdrecord -scanbus gives:

cdrecord: Warning: Running on Linux-2.6.15-ARCH

In rc.conf:

...
MODULES=(!usbserial 8139too uhci_hcd usb-storage sd_mod ide-scsi sr_mod)
...

I've put hdc=ide-scsi in /boot/grub/menu.lst, no change.
Here's output from dmesg | grep '^hd':

hdb: Pioneer DVD-ROM ATAPIModel DVD-116 0109, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hdc: CD-W540E, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

hdb: ATAPI 40X DVD-ROM drive, 256kB Cache, UDMA(66)
hdc: ATAPI 48X CD-ROM CD-R/RW drive, 8192kB Cache, UDMA(33)

I've ran out of ideas here...

Re: Can't use my CDRW

I was having a problem in graveman where it was detecting my cdrw as a dvd (with no write capability).  I went into file -> preferences -> devices and manually added a device (/dev/cdrw in my case).  I also right clicked on the device graveman detected and removed it.

Re: Can't use my CDRW

I tried adding it manually and it seemed ok, but when i tried to burn something i got "Operation failed" error.
It has to be something else, so that i can use nautilus as well.

Re: Can't use my CDRW

I have the same "Operation failed" error in graveman at the end of the burning process, but CDs are still successfully burnt.
