I am attaching my dmesg output and the output from /proc/cpuinfo.  Let me
know if there is anything else I can provide or test.

dmesg shows my drive as both hdc and a SCSI drive because I am using SCSI
emulation via a boot-time "hdc=ide-scsi" argument so that I can burn CDs
with cdrecord.  I see the exact same behavior whether I use SCSI emulation
or not.  That is:

With SCSI emulation:
  /dev/dvd -> /dev/sr0
  Plays region 1
  Can't play region 2 ("ioctl ReadDiscKey failed")

Without SCSI emulation:
  /dev/dvd -> /dev/hdc
  Plays region 1
  Can't play region 2 ("ioctl ReadDiscKey failed")

Thanks,
Andru
