Recently my DVD combo drive a Philips PBDV1640P is not detected by FC6

How can I force FC6 to detect my DVD so I do not have to boot twice ?
Anyway, a few questions/comments.
3. On the first boot, save /var/log/dmesg someplace and reboot. Then compare the /var/log/dmesg file created at the second boot.
Ed here is my dmesg file. Take a look at /dev/hdd ! Now the question is
it a BIOS or FC6 error ?
DVD combo drive detection is O.K. in FC6 x86_64:
