(F-42 Workstation; gnome)

This past spring, I backed-up some 15-20 GB to an MDISC blu-ray.  Now I need to recover that data.

The optical device is blu-ray.  It (supposedly) handles MDISC.  It connects to the desktop via 2 USB ports. - I tried recovering the data logged in as a regular user, as the admin, and as root. - I tried the file browser, Brasero, Gnome CD Master, and K3b.  They either don't see the device, or they see it but don't know there's a disc in it.   Gnome CD Master shows the device's status as "Busy". - I tried plugging in the device after logging in; I tried plugging it in before powering up the desktop.
Nothing works.
The "Disks" utility does see the optical drive.
I get no real error messages.

I spent time in the "mount" man page, but could not make sense of it.

I've spent hours on this.  How do I recover the back-ups from the blu-ray disc?
