You should have had two udi, the first one should be used and rather look like: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_... did you type: hal-device | egrep " udi|scd0" | grep -B 1 scd0 while the DVD-R was in the drive ?
If even with the dvd in the drive, you do not have the good udi, then hal should be the problem. Do: - eject the dvd if present in the drive - stop hal: sudo /etc/init.d/hal stop - launch in verbose mode: sudo su -s /bin/sh haldaemon -c "hald --daemon=no --verbose=yes" >/tmp/hal.debug.txt 2>&1 - wait several seconds that hal finished its startup - insert the dvd - wait several seconds - type ctrl+c - relaunch hal: sudo /etc/init.d/hal start and attach the hal.debug.txt file -- Mounting UDF should be preferred over ISO9660 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112584 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
