Rodney is still having a problem:
No, Larry Jordan, I did not have any disc in the burner.  I am a rank novice on Linux and was not aware that a disk had to be in the drive to see if it showed up under Places-->Computer,   I put a disk in (the ISO for one of the Ubuntu distributions) and reran /etc/fstab and /usr....... and got the same results as before.  Here they are along with the output from sudo lshw | grep dvd
rodney@rodney-desktop:~$ cat /etc/fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.

Maybe my problem is only in my mind as since the burner did not show up under Computer, I did not try to write anything.  As I said, I'm a novice when it comes to Linux.  Sorry to be such a dummy here and I thank you for your patience.  Rodney
