Umm... It looks like HAL doesn't like sg device in kernel. The HAL just  
doesn't function unless I boot in old kernel that has no sg. If I insert  
blank CD or DVD and it doesn't auto recoginze blank CD/DVD unless I reboot  
to use kernel without sg. I have tested it twice to make sure to boot in  
kernel with and without sg. If you want me to debug, then I can and I will  
have to check in FAQ for how to debug HAL.

Cheers,
