Is this in 2.6.27, or was it a 2.6.28 addition?  For some reason, I had
reports from openSUSE users that 2.6.27 still didn't work properly and
needed this driver.

How about the new "pcc-acpi-cdrom" driver hack?  Hiroshi, is that needed
still with the 2.6.27 kernel?

remember this for the future :)
