How do you add a module or check to see if one is there on you system?

You mean kernel modules?

[man] insmod to install modules.
[man] lsmod to list installed modules.

Ah crap!!

I'm getting the following error:

sg.o: couldn't find the kernel version the module was compiled for


So I tried to compile it and got 100s of errors!! So I'm not sure where to go from here.

For a CDWriter?

You may need to compile your kernel and include scsi support. ide-scsi and a few others. I think the ones I've listed below are correct.
