Funny. I have the same brand DVD and same kernel. I had some problems mounting as a normal user but not root. I had to find the right /dev and add it to fstab, problems gone. If you've enabled ide-scsi for it, then it should be symlinked somewhere under /dev/cdroms.
Actually, I believe /dev/cdroms is a devfs thing and if he's not using devfs, he should look under /dev/scdX instead. Using ide-scsi, the drive will appear as a SCSI device, hence the /dev/scd items.
