insmod: sr_mod: no module by that name found ; scsi_mod same



Hello all - 
hope your computing is happy and the hair isnt falling out all over the
keyboard. (how did i know that?)

i just installed a GCE-8160B CDRW  (brand names are LG / GOLDSTAR)
which is listed on some of the compatibility lists for cdrecord...

i can play cd's, mount data discs, etc... but cdrecord (and xcdroast)
don't seem to be functioning... basically they see the drive fine,
but when i click "Read input" it says "no disk in read device" and
when i go to write a file it will say "please insert a CD-R"...
i note that lsmod does NOT contain scsi_mod or sr_mod and i cannot load
them...  is this a problem?
if this also helps:
callerio:~# cdrecord -scanbus

cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open SCSI driver.
cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you
are root.

i will be glad to provide any other information... i looked in archives
and the cdrecord pages... i know redhat doesnt require these modules
(to be loaded "by hand") but i see that in the debian posts most people
seem to have them loaded... even if they were compiled in wouldnt they
show in #lsmod... lp, snd , and others do, these *must* be compiled in.

kernel is 2.2.19pre17

Thank you,

Shawn Lamson
