Do you have DMA enabled on your DVD-ROM?

hdparm -d /dev/hdc

?

I have no device (hdb or hdc)
I only have /dev/cdrom which points to /dev/scsi/blah/blah/blah/lun0.
I guess I could recompile my kernel...

No, that'll work fine!

/dev/cdrom:
using_dma = 1 (on)


Kernel recompile maybe necessary, depends if you've got the right IDE drivers built.
