No cdrom.o is for IDE CDrom drives. I believe the
correct module for your drive is sbpcd.o

There are different modules for soundblaster audio
(as opposed to the soundblaster CDrom). Several of
us here do soundblaster audio on BasicLinux, so we
can help you with that.

Slackware 4.0 has several newsreader packages:
nn (n4) tin (n7) trn (n6)

I think lynx also can read news.
