As I said in a previous message: There's a bug in the Kernel that is
patched (fixed) on other Linux distributions.  Here are some links about
the subject:
        http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0405.2/0042.html
        http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0406.1/1548.html

If you examine your /var/log/syslog you should see a line that reads
something similar to:
        kernel: cdrom: dropping to single frame dma


Wait for Breezy or compile the latest Kernel yourself.  Sorry, but I
think this is the only two options.  (I would be *VERY* happy to be
corrected!)
