VBox can't see Host CD-ROM drives

Description

I'm using Xubuntu which supports /dev/cdrom0 and /dev/cdrom1 but vbox only looks for /dev/cdrom. I think cbox should either do a scan for available cdroms or allow the user to enter a CDrom device if one is not available.

Please install the libhal-dev package and see if this makes any difference.

Just for completeness - this is mentioned in http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/User_FAQ
