ide-scsi problems

[James Pifer]

I'm running FC5 on an HP Compaq nx9110 laptop. I needed to burn some CDs
so I added hdc=ide-scsi to my grub.conf. This did give me the ability to
burn CDs but I had two unwanted side affects. 

1) First my VMWare player came up complaining it could no longer find or
use /dev/hdc

2) When I put a disc in the CD/DVD drive it auto mounts like usual, but
instead of one icon on the desktop I get 5 or 6. 

Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Still googling, but if anyone knows
I'd appreciate the help.

Thanks,
James
