Hello,
On a Debian Etch running 2.6.16-2, if I connect an external DVD USB
writer (Samsung SE-S164L), I get this in /var/log/syslog:
kernel: usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 12
kernel: usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
kernel: scsi10 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
kernel: usb-storage: device found at 12
kernel: usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
kernel: Vendor: TSSTcorp Model: CD/DVDW SH-S162L Rev: TS05
kernel: Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI

Sep 5 22:54:54 localhost udevd-event[2665]: find_free_number: %e is
deprecated, will be removed and is unlikely to work correctly. Don't
use it.
So it is detected properly by hal and udev makes the /dev/sr0 device.
So far so good. However, I do not get a KDE prompt asking what to do
if I put in a DVD or CD with data on it as KDE asks if I put a disc in
the internal IDE optical drive. And it doesn't even mount it. I have
to mount it manually using a mount point. Another point, the drive is
successfully detected by k3b in KDE.
... well, almost solved. Thanks to the feedback of Joerg Platte on
this list, the problem was the version of hal in my Debian Testing box.
Currently it is 0.5.7.1-1. The problem is solved in the next version of
hal (which I confirmed in a Debian Unstable box) which is 0.5.7.1-2. The
problem is explained in bug #383792 on bugs.debian.org.
So the problem will be solved in Testing too when the new version of hal
becomes available in testing branch (around 10 days after it appears in
unstable branch I guess).
