The usb module is started on bootup so it never needs to be insmod'd.
However, in the interest of science, I removed all the loaded modules
that had to do with either SCSI or USB (this includes usb-uhci,
usb-storage, scsi_mod, sr_mod, as well as st and ide-scsi which are
needed for my tape drive) and then re-loaded them in the order described
below.  If the USB device was turned on, then as soon as usb-uhci was
loaded, the other 2 modules loaded automatically and I had THIS in
/var/log/messages:

Notice the absence of any sort of SCSI attachment message.  Removing all
the modules and then reloading them with the USB device OFF and then
turning it ON once the modules are in place yields the same result. At
this point, I would like to point out that this CD-R WAS working with an
earlier version of Redhat so there is no hardware issue.  It only
stopped working after an earlier upgrade.
