I'm writing this from a lifebook E8010 but my cdrom device is
different. Here's my dmesg with atapicam enabled in kernel config:
acd0: CDRW <UJDA750FDVD/CDRW/1.22> at ata1-master UDMA33
cd0 at ata1 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
cd0: <MATSHITA UJDA750FDVD/CDRW 1.22> Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device
cd0: 33.000MB/s transfers
cd0: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present - tray c
losed
