In that case, you should first check the relevant chapter of
the FreeBSD handbook which explains the required actions. Keep
in mind Brasero doesn't burn CDs and DVDs on its own - it needs
the OS and additional programs to do so.

As soon as you got the permissions thing right, Brasero will
work as expected. I have it running on one system with Gnome 2.



Again, go through the basic steps first:

Is the optical drive recognized by the system?

	# dmesg | grep ^cd

	# camcontrol devlist

Do you have the required software installed?

	# pkg install cdrecord

	# pkg install cdrdao

	# pkg install dvd+rw-tools

Does cdrecord recognize the drive?

	# cdrecord -scanbus

Do you have the correct permissions to access the device files
that control the optical drive? Check /etc/devfs.conf for
entries like this:

	link    cd0     dvd
	own     cd0     root:operator
	perm    cd0     0664
	own     xpt0    root:operator
	perm    xpt0    0660
	own     pass0   root:operator
	perm    pass0   0660

Make sure your user is a member of the "operator" group so
that you can benefit from the group permission to write to the
controlling device files.
