Hi, Although I'm not an expert in the topic under discussion, I doubt you will find what you're looking for...
Writing to CD/DVDs takes more power than USB can provide you. Much less USB ports from laptops, which are known to provide even less power... Concerning compatibility with Debian, I've used a DVD burner in an external USB2.0 case, and burned a few CD's with K3b. Everything went all right... Kernel 2.6.9 will give you some problems with recording CD/DVDs. Kernel 2.6.8 sometimes also (some people says it works,,, with me it doesn't...) Kernel 2.6.7 write CD/DVDs without problems.
