cd

I'm running Kubuntu 12.04.1 LTS and Kubuntu hasn't recognised my CD!

Here are the results of a sudo fdisk -l:

Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders, total 976773168 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes 
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes 
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes Disk identifier: 0x000c5a81

 /dev/sda5        964605952   976771071     6082560   82  Linux swap / Solaris

How am I meant to view it in say, Dolphin?
