[nflug] CD/DVD drives not working in linux

[Robert F. Stockdale IV]

Hi All:
	I have 3 optical drives. An old Pioneer scsi DVD rom. A 2+ year old Yamaha CD-RW and a 1+ year 
old DVD+-RW drive. The last 2 are ATAPI with Acard ATAPI-SCSI bridges on them. They all worked 
fine back when I was running Suse 9.0. However, I'm running Gentoo for the past year and a half 
and I can't seem to access them let a lone burn anything to the writable drives. The system see 
them but I can't seem to mount them. The output from  cat /proc/scsi/scsi is:

# noatime turns off atimes for increased performance (atimes normally aren't

# efficiency).  It's safe to drop the noatime options if you want and to
# switch between notail and tail freely.

# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will
#  use almost no memory if not populated with files)
# Adding the following line to /etc/fstab should take care of this:

none                    /dev/shm        tmpfs           defaults                0 0


Does anyone have any ideas?
