Easy CD Burner Question (failed to load modules sg, sr_mod)

amphibious

So I've followed the directions in the install guide and I can't get k3b or cdbakeoven to recognize my CD burner or DVD burner.

Using menuconfig, I've added SCSI support, SCSI CD-ROM support, and SCSI generic support into the kernel, and they don't recognize when I reboot. I've added them as modules and put them in the autoload file only to have two error messages (failed to load sg, failed to load sr_mod) come up on boot. I've added the hdx=ide-scsi line (where x is my burner) to my grub.conf.

Isn't adding them as modules in menuconfig supposed to make the automagically appear as modules during boot? I'm sure this is a really common question with an easy answer... I also think solving this question will also help me solve my USB mouse issue, where modules are supposed to be compiled but never are.

Thanks...

Have you build and installed the modules after activating them in your kernel configuration? ( ... make modules modules_install ...)
