Everything works but the DVD.
In what way doesn't it work?
Do you have something like /dev/dvd ? Where does it point to? Where
are you expecting it to point to?
I think something like /dev/sr0 is often used for optical drives these
days. That's what it is on my system. Please `dmesg | grep sr`. It
would have done you any hard to attache your entire `dmesg` output in
your original posting.
