I found this problem too, only after I found this bug report though, sadly! I've patched 0.3.6 with a fix so your devices don't get unregistered when the lths module loads. If you want to check it out I've uploaded it here as a patch -> http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1746386&group_id=160630&atid=816619.

Patch against version 0.3.6, the default behavior is to unregister IDE channel 1 when the module loads. This gives the undesired result that you have to eject and insert your device before it is recognised. This patch removes this requirement.
I tried both ide_scan and just removing the unregister command on init, neither seem to give bad results so I've patched for the more efficient...

Same here on my T30 with CD drive (IDE). I need to pop the eject switch and push it back in before I can use my CD drive for the first time after loading the module.

I can confirm this...after loading the lt_hotswap module,
/dev/hdc is missing.

When I boot my thinkpad my dvd-rom is removed when I
load the module lt_hotswap. For it to be detected I
have to eject then re-plug it with the computer on
(hot-swap). I'm using Gentoo GNU/Linux kernel 2.6.16
and lt_hotswap 0.3.6. My computer is a R40. Everything
else works like a charm. Thanks.
