Dear all, After kernel 2.6.38-2 got into sid, I switched the kernel to the debian kernel and voilá, the cdrom drive works. Put my kernel back - with deprecated sysfs compiled - and the problem is back. So thanks for that! It is working now with the stock debian kernel.
Out of curiosity, why this option blocks the cdrom use, and why it was not detected?
