Use device name instead of device numbers on kernel 2.6.x

I had the same issue with an external USB writer (Linux 2.6.x PREEMPT x86_64
Debian GNU/Linux). Burning CDs works with the device file name, but not with
the device numbers. The attached patch uses the device file name instead of the
device numbers if the device is an SCSI-device and the kernel version is larger
than 2.6.0. (One interesting thing is that I had this issue only when running
the x86_64 kernel, when running the i386 kernel with the same version on the
same machine it also worked with the device numbers).
