Hi folks! I am running Lubuntu 16.04 64bit on a Lenovo X140e with the "AMD A4-5000 APU with Radeon(TM) HD Graphics" CPU, and a 500GB hard drive.
I am having a problem with Xfburn seeing my ASUS SDRW-08D1S-U external USB 2.0 CD/DVD burner. When I connect it to the laptop, it shows up in Devices. I can play video DVDs from it just fine. But, when I right click on a .iso file to burn it to a DVD+RW disc and select Xfburn, Xfburn give a pop-up that says "No burners are currently available". If I open Xfburn from the Menu, and go into Edit > Preferences > Devices, the burner is not listed under Detected devices. If I click on 'Scan for devices' it still does not detect the drive. I found a work-around for this here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/232026/external-dvd-writer-not-detected-in-xfburn There was no .rules files in the /etc/udev/rules.d directory, so I created a '70-persistent-cd.rules' file and copied in the rule from that page, inserting the serial number for my drive, which I got from running 'usbview'. Here's the rule I put into the file I created: SUBSYSTEM=="block", ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_SERIAL}=="00101016400000005", ENV{ID_TYPE}="cd", ENV{GENERATED}="1" The filename is: 70-persistent-cd.rules I then rebooted and still Xfburn does not see the external burner.
