Installing a Sony CRX195A1 CDRW Drive in Red Hat 7.3 (Linux Journal)

Linux Journal discusses CDRW drives in Linux. "I told the tech that I knew the drive wasn't supported in Linux, but would it work? Immediately, I was told no. I thanked him and tried again with a different technician, three times to be exact, and each time I was told by a different person that the drive wouldn't work. I figured I was being told it wouldn't work because they didn't know the real answer and couldn't be bothered to check. Armed with an educated guess and a sense of adventure, I purchased the drive."
