That means that cdparanoia checked to see if it was using the regular ide-cd 
interface and discovered it wasn't. You can safely ignore that message. If it 
said this straight afterwards:

        Testing /dev/cdrom for SCSI interface
                No generic SCSI device found to match CDROM device /dev/scd0

Then you have a problem, but it may just be a permissions issue, so test as
root first.
