Why not try recompiling your kernel to have ide-cd as a module?  I 
noticed that you are not also getting UDMA(33) when your drive is 
detected, so maybe there is a problem communicating with the drive.  I 
would eject and re-insert the drive first, and if that didn't change 
anything I would recompile the kernel.

I have a T30, same cd drive, Debian Etch, ide-cd as a module, and no 
problems with hal/udevd/udev here.
