I was told in Ubuntu forums that this problem was unique to me. What arrogance. It is a problem for a bunch of us since 8.04. Over a year later and still not addressed. Seems they do not give a rats a$$ whether CD or DVD drives work. Like Windows, backward compatibility is of no concern. The same drives work beautifully under Windows XP and 7.10. Ubuntu forums told me to just go back to windows and be a slave to MS. Since 7.10 Ubuntu has gone downhill fast. They care more about streaming audio than getting the audio on your computer to start with. Without a concrete fix, Ubuntu will be vilified by me, as there arrogance dictates it is necessary to get proper attention. I have many friends that have now ordered win7, as they are too fed up with the emphasis on new new types of audio at the expense of what should just work. Since 7.10 I have nothing good to say about Ubuntu. The Geeks are still in control and could care less about making Ubuntu mainstream. Just as elitist as the banking CEOs. As of 7.10 Ubuntu is garbage if it can not make major components "just work'. And my opinins will reflect trhis as an Ubuntu user on the Tech threads. Launchpad has brought this discontent upon their selves and deserving so.
