Not able to see content of a DVD

[shirish]

Hi all,
 There have been updates of both mount as well as hal. Possibly one of
these two are responsible for I'm not able to see content of the DVD.
While dmesg gives me drive.

Any idea what or where the issue could be?

Another thing why is it even when I don't have a bootable CD/DVD it
doesn't go forward while booting. This is a bug isn't it.

I'm on Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 with all updates.
