Thanks for the suggestions. The issue became less and less frequent until when a few months ago it somehow resolved itself. I didn't do anything though; the script and the cron command have remained the same. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, w

The last few days this problem has become less predictable. Instead of every day, this problem occurs every other day. I'm not experiencing the issue today, but yesterday I did. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus

I faced the same problem while trying to copy an audio CD on an updated Ubuntu 10.10. After reading the comments, I installed the package 'cdrdao'. That actually solved the problem. Brasero has just successfully created an image file of the CD. I tried to reproduce the bug by removing the package
