i assume you have cdrdao on your system.... isn't it the backend which  
most of these gui's use? my system is gentoo, at the moment, and i just  
use "cdrdao write --eject --device /dev/cdrom toc-file" to write audio  
cd's -- tastes great, less filling, etc. etc.    :-)

see the cdrdao man page for lots of info about other options as well as  
the syntax for your toc files.
