Occasionally the following error is reported on Athens (101.5) when using cdrdao to write a CD:

  Starting write ERROR: No mode page data received
  ERROR: Cannot retrieve drive capabilities mode page. 
  at speed 0... 
  Pausing 10 seconds - hit CTRL-C to abort.

  ERROR: Cannot retrieve write parameters mode page. 
  ERROR: Cannot setup write parameters for session-at-once mode. 
  ERROR: Please try to use the 'generic-mmc-raw' driver.

A simple solution is to remove the ide-cd module and try again:

  $ sudo rmmod ide-cd
