Well, knowing nothing about CD burners, I would guess that your
new kernel is not configured to burn CD's. This will probably
involve your loading some modules.
Now, I believe that with your kernel, all the modules are
compiled automatically (Educated case) and are lying around
somewhere in /lib/modules/your_kernel_version (uname -r). Once
you know what modules you need, insmod will do if for you. 
You might reboot into your old kernel and see if you can figure
out which modules you need by running lsmod. 
If by chance these modules are not compiled yet, you can run make
xconfig, choose those modules, and make dep; make clean;make
modules; make modules_install, without recompiling your kernel.
