Are these CD/DVD devices SCSI? This sounds like the type of thing one might encounter with erroneous LUN probing or perhaps two SCSI devices on SCSI-ID=7. There might also be problems if the /home/$user directories are shared amongst different Linux distributions. I had a bunch of extra Desktop icons left over from a Caldera 3.1.1 Workstation install when I switched the machine to SuSE 8.1.
