Here's mine. MY CD "just works" without me doing any fiddling.

$ dmesg | grep CD
hdc: LITE-ON LTR-52327S, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hdc: ATAPI 52X CD-ROM CD-R/RW CD-MRW drive, 2048kB Cache, UDMA(33)
Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20

#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd1,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Fedora Core (2.6.5-1.358)
root (hd1,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.5-1.358 ro root=LABEL=/1
initrd /initrd-2.6.5-1.358.img

BTW, this LITE-ON is a nice unit and pretty cheap. I got it for about 50
CDN bucks. Does CD-Text, too.
