Can you give us the 'lspci -n' info for the 00:1f.1 PCI device (I expect 
that your CD drive is connected to that controller)?

Does 'dmesg' show any information about your CD drive being detected or 
problems reading it?

Is there a /dev/hdX of /dev/cdroms/... present?

Is the CD mounted? If not, can you mount it? If it is, can you read it?
