I did this when I compiled the kernel.  Should they be set up as modules 
instead of specifying Y for yes?

In demesg this is what is says about scsi:
scsi : 0 hosts.
scsi : detected total.

USB stuff is loaded last 

Here's what I get in messages.log:

One thing concerns me, is that I don't see any actual device ID's for the cd
