my old compaq presario F700 has the same problem. With ubuntu 11.04 64bits unit 
was not recognized, but with 32bits version it shows up again. The problem is 
that I switched to xubuntu 11.04 32 bits and the problem persists.
Also I must say that when ubuntu 11.04 32b version was installed the dvd drive 
was ok until I decided to test the ubuntu-restricted-extras package: the drived 
disapeared and appeared again after I removed that package.
Might be some problem related to the multimedia codecs ??

Hope this helps
