Thanks for your investigations. I'm a bit hesitant to apply this, since it is really a workaround. Without cd_profiles() we do not have any chance to determine what kind of media is in it, i. e. whether it's rewritable, a DVD, and so on. So I guess this wouldn't be much more useful than the broken state right now.
Is that really a firmware bug, or a problem with the kernel driver for that CD-ROM? If the latter, we should rather fix it in the kernel. -- CD is partially detected [CD-RW_CRX140E], likely due to hardware missing GET CONFIGURATION support https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/502143 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
