I have removed the dvd-rom drive from my laptop(not the disk). When I install the drive again. The device didn't displayed in /dev/cdrom or /dev/dvd
Is there a command that can make ubuntu scan for new hardware and install the driver?

Ubuntu automatically scans for new hardware. Check if you have connect the driver properly. Check if it is visible in the BIOS. If not then probably it is damaged.

Normally the dvd disk will be mount to /media/dvd But now nothing happens when I install the dvd drive or insert a disk.– 唐英荣Jul 8, 2011 at 5:33
Install cdde from Ubuntu Software Centre.. It works with mine.
Run the following command in Terminal (Ctrl + Alt + T) and observe what happens next:
sudo udevadm monitor
It could help you to troubleshoot the problem.
