I have same bug in Ubuntu Gutsy on my Acer Apire Laptop.... I am surprised no one has pointed out or may be what i am going to write is technically same what is being discssed here.
The problem is with the dvd's or cd's burned in multi session mode, which doesn't depend whether dvd was burnt in WIndows XP or Linux. I have two dvd's, one burnt with Nero in Windows XP and other with K3b in Linux, both in multisession mode. I am unable to access both In Linux, while both run fine in Windows XP. In Ubuntu, the behavior on inserting the dvd is something like this : DVD spins twice or thrice, LED lights up along with it, and then spinning and LED both stops. When i try to mount DVD by Right Clicking on CD/DVD Icon Computer Windows, it says "There is probably no media in drive" Whatever the cause behind this problem is, the fact is that the problem is really grave, really makes Ubuntu (or Linux if the problem is also present in other Linux Distro, Can someone confirm this ?) look inferior to Windows in a big way..... I mean just imagine the reaction of a novice user when he/she won't be able to access his documents on a DVD given to him by someone else if he/she switches to Ubuntu completely after removing Windows XP from his/her computer.... Someone rightly said on this page...it will be a big shame if some windows love posts this "Ubuntu can't even read your DVD's, how dare it even compares to Windows..." on Slashdot or Digg..... And the surprise is that this bug has not been fixed despite the fact that it is has been present for a long time.... Please Ubuntu developers, fix it as early as possible... -- mount udf dvd fails, possible wrong fstab entry https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44233 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
