    Laptop ASUS X51RL: CD-ROM not found

    Hi!
    On laptop ASUS X51RL has updated Kubuntu 8.04 to Kubuntu 8.10, using Alternate CD and after that from system has disappeared CD-ROM (DVD-RW).
    At loading with Kubuntu 8.04 Live-CD lsmod give out:
    ide_cd 32544 1
    cdrom 37408 1 ide_cd

    At 8.10 such lines are not present, tried sudo rmmod ide_cd, gives out:
    ERROR: Module ide_cd does not exist in/proc/modules.
    Still sudo modprobe ide_cd, gives out:
    FATAL: Module ide_cd not found.
    Applied files with a conclusion lsmod 8.04 and 8.10 and dmesg from 8.10.
    Why can not work my CD-ROM?
    Thanks

    I don't know what has happened -- I have not seen such a report before. Here are some ideas:

    1. Can you make a 8.10 Live CD? It would be very interesting to see whether that CD would boot on your hardware.

    2. Can you run
    Code:
    lspci
    so we can see whether the optical drive hardware is detected?

    3. Can you post
    Code:
    cat /etc/fstab
    so we can see whether it exists in the filesystem table?

      On items:
      1. Kubuntu 8.10 Live-CDs are not loaded, also does not find CD a drive - a photo I apply.
      2. lcpci for Kubuntu 8.04 and 8.10 - they are almost identical.
      3. /etc/fstab
      Thanks.
