there have been several posts of this issue on the mailing lists, with no reports submitted, and no fix ever announced... some CD-ROMS (particularly those in dell laptops, but this is not limited to dells, nor even laptop cd-roms) get the following errors in your dmesg, and are not recognized (full output of dmes available upon request from coffee@fatburrito.com):

>Fix:
Unknown.
