I haven't figured out how to mount this cd-driver.
Model is Teac CD-W224PUK. It is working fine in a Windows machine.
What is the solution?

well you could edit your /etc/fstab (with root powers) to add this line?

/dev/bus/usb/001 /mnt/burner iso9660 noauto,users 0 0

plus

mkdir /mnt/burner

2) then if using kde add a new device icon.

BUT.....Mandriva uses HAL as in /etc/hal/stuff so you may need to reboot to test.

ps leave it as noauto unless you put a burnt disc in please

oops I better read your dmesg better....I can see a usb device but on reflection that appears to be a hub only.

however, all is not lost as you may not have had the usb device connected at boot up??

as dmesg is only kernel boot up messages instead ...
insert your usb device again...(or pull out and redo)

then check your /var/log/syslog and or messages to see if it is detected please
