Hi I am a linux newbie, my system is On Maverick Meerkat 10.10, I have it dual booted with Windows Vista (which I hate having to boot into!), but this is what I've found, all DVD's + and - work perfectly under Vista, so certainly not a hardware problem.
I first couldn't read DVD-R's applications like brasero failed to recognise that a DVD was in the drive. However when I checked System->Administration->Disk Utility this showed that a DVD was mounted, to my surprise when I clicked unmount, everything worked, Brasero included. I don't know enough about Linux to know what that means, but I hope it helps one of you guys figure out the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/228624 Title: DVD writer not working since hardy upgrade -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
