I had the same problem (it sounds like) on a couple
of different systems on new installs, one of RedHat
6.2, and one of Mandrake 7.1.

I resolved the problem (after much digging through
archives of this mailing list, and other resources on
the net) by loading the "ide-scsi" module.  

Not knowing intuitively (by divine intervention, I
guess) that CD burning and Linux has deeply entrenched
SCSI roots, I didn't automatically know to check for
this.  Why distributions like Mandrake and RedHat
don't configure themselves for this automatically if
you select "CD Burning" packages, and you don't have a
SCSI adapter, I don't know.
