Thanks for the files. They look a bit inconsistent, hal seems to have recongnized the DVD, but g-v-m does not pick up anything at all. Also, the 'cdrom: This disc doesn't have any tracks I recognize!' output looks strange.
After inserting the CD, is it mounted if you do mount /cdrom in a terminal? Please copy&paste the output from that command if there is any. If not, please paste the output of 'mount' here. -- no reaction on DVD-RAM https://launchpad.net/bugs/37907 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
